Chandigarh, August 30

Chief Minister ManoharLal Khattar today admitted that the “choice of words” by IAS officer and Karnal SDM Ayush Sinha, who reportedly made “crack their heads” comment, was was not correct.

“Although the officer’s choice of words was not correct, strictness had to be maintained to ensure law and order situation was kept under check,” Khattar said at a press conference.

“If any action has to be taken (against the officer), it would first have to be assessed by the district administration. The DGP is also looking into it. To maintain law and order, strictness had to be ensured,” he 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).
