The recruitment rules, appointment and relieving of employees on a deputation in the UT will be decided by the Chandigarh Administrator.

According to a notification issued by the Department of Personnel, UT Administration, on the order of the UT Administrator, a partial modification has been made in a notification issued on May 12, 2020.

Now, the cases for framing and amendments of service rules or recruitment rules in respect of all Group A, B, and C posts and services have to be submitted to the Administrator for approval. Similarly, the Administrator’s nod has to be sought before initiating the process of appointment of government employees on a deputation and their relieving from the Chandigarh Administration in respect of all Group A, B, and C posts and services.

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).
