Shimla, March 24

Governor Bandaru Dattatreya today administered oath of office and secrecy to Ajay Kumar as the Chairman of the Himachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (HPPSC) at a ceremony held at Raj Bhawan, Shimla. Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur was also present on the occasion.

The Governor also administered oath of office and secrecy to Jai Prakash Kalta as Member of the Himachal Pradesh Public Service Commission. Secretary to Governor, Rakesh Kanwar conducted the proceeding.

Kumar retired as Principal Chief Conservator of Forests last year while Kalta retired as the Managing Director of the state Electricity Board.

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).
