Vinay Kulkarni, a 1982 batch officer of the Indian Defence Service of Engineers (IDSE), has been promoted as Director General (Personnel) in the Military Engineers Service — the most senior position for civilian officers.

He is currently posted as Additional Director General (North-East). He will take over from Devendra Kumar, who retires this month. Director General (Personnel)is responsible for human resource management in the MES, which has a large civilian component, and forms part of the Engineer-in-Chief’s Branch at Army Headquarters.

A civil engineer by profession, Kulkarni has held a host of important executive and staff appointments in his 35-year-old career, including the quasi judicial post of sole arbitrator for the MES, which is said to be the country’s largest construction agency.

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).
