Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) Managing Director Dr Vikas Kumar has been awarded a special ‘Appreciation’ by the Chief of Army Staff, General Upendra Dwivedi, in recognition of his “yeoman contribution and outstanding commitment to the Indian Army.”

The honour, conferred on Tuesday, acknowledges Dr Kumar’s sustained support and collaboration with the Indian Army through various initiatives undertaken by DMRC.

The DMRC said it shares a relationship with the armed forces and has consistently extended support to the Army in all its endeavours.

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).
