Mohit Chawla, Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of Himachal Pradesh Police, has been honoured with the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of the Year Award for Law Enforcement at the Dynamic CISO Excellence Awards 2025, held in Mumbai, Maharashtra.

Chawla received the award for his contributions in controlling cybercrime and strengthening digital security. Under his leadership, several innovations have been introduced to tackle cybercrime in the state.

Director General of Police (DGP) Ashok Tewari congratulated Chawla, saying the award reflects his expertise and dedication in cybercrime control, and underscores the growing importance of active cyber policing in the country.

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).
