Chandigarh, May 18

Keeping in view the fitness of the officers and personnel of the Haryana Police, Home Minister Anil Vij today issued written directions to the Additional Chief Secretary, Home Department, that overweight personnel should be transferred to the police lines.

He said the police personnel whose weight had increased and continued to increase with time could be made fit through exercise. Only after that, they should be deputed on duty, 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).
