Retired IAS officer Vijai Vardhan was on Friday administered the oath as the Chief Information Commissioner of Haryana.

Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar administered the oath of office and allegiance to Vadhan at the Haryana Niwas here, according to an official release.

Also, another retired IAS officer, Satyavir Singh Phulia, was administered the oath as the state Information Commissioner.

Haryana Governor Bandaru Dattatreya had recently appointed the two former IAS officers as the state CIC and state Information Commissioner.

State ministers Ranjit Singh and Jai Prakash Dalal were also present during the oath-taking ceremony.

Chief Secretary Sanjeev Kaushal, Chief Principal Secretary to CM D S Dhesi and other senior officers were also present.

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).
