Chandigarh, November 11

Maj Gen Jasbir Singh Sandhu (retd) has been appointed as the director of Mai Bhago Armed Forces Preparatory Institute, Mohali. He took over from Maj Gen IP Singh, whose term of engagement has ended.

An alumnus of the National Defence Academy, Maj Gen Sandhu has commanded a Rashtriya Rifles battalion and an Infantry brigade in Jammu and Kashmir and an Infantry division in Punjab. As a Brigadier, he has also had a stint with the Officers Training Academy, Chennai.

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).
