Chandigarh, September 9

The HC today dismissed a plea challenging the seniority list of state’s Superior Judicial Service officers.

As such, the existing seniority list of the judges in the state will remain intact.

The development is significant as the HC collegium has recommended for elevation the names of four District and Sessions Judges from Haryana. The matter was placed before the Division Bench of Justice Augustine George Masih and Justice Sandeep Moudgil on a bunch of pleas filed by judicial officer Paramveer Nijjar and other petitioners.

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).
