Una, July 7

Aditya Singh Rana, who hails from Bathari village of Haroli subdivision in Una district, topped the NDA entrance examination held by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC), results of which were announced recently. The tests include written test and an interview conducted by the Services Selection Board.

As per Aditya’s grandfather Ved Prakash Rana, who is a veteran of the 1971 Indo-Pak war, Aditya would be the fourth generation in his family to serve in the Indian defence services.

Aditya’s father is a serving Colonel, presently posted in Delhi, while his great grandfather participated in the World War II in Egypt as part of the British Indian Army.

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).
