Shimla, December 15

The office-bearers of the HP High Court Bar Association today submitted a memorandum to Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla against the decision of the state government to restore the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT).

The association stated in the memorandum that the reopening of the tribunal would cause a lot of problems to litigants. Since this institution was closed twice in the past, reopening it would be against the interest of the litigants. The decision in cases would be delayed, adversely affecting the interests of employees as well, it added.

Ajit Saklani, vice-president of the Bar Association, said that they requested the Governor to intervene in the matter.

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).
