Chandigarh, July 1

The Haryana Government has asked the deputy commissioners to inform the state headquarters before leaving their districts for official and private visits outside their jurisdiction.

An order issued by the Chief Secretary on Thursday asked the deputy commissioners to inform him along with the Chief Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister and the Divisional Commissioner concerned before leaving their stations for any official/private visit outside the district.

It noted that “it had come to the notice that many deputy commissioners sometimes spend the nights outside the jurisdiction of their districts without the prior approval of the competent authority”. The government has taken a serious view of their absence from districts, the order added.

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).
