Rajan Nanda

New Delhi, August 6

Escorts group chairman Rajan Nanda (76) passed away on Sunday after a brief illness, a company statement said on Monday.

Nanda joined Escorts in 1965 at the age of 23, and in 1994, he took over as chairman of Escorts Group, when his father and the founder chairman, HP Nanda, stepped down after a 50-year-long innings.

Rajan Nanda was an active member of several apex trade and industry bodies.

Escorts is a leading manufacturer of tractors and construction equipment in the country. It also caters to railways with its various products. — PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
