The Directorate of Elementary Education has issued orders for the removal of teachers appointed on the PTA basis, who do not fulfil the required educational qualifications though they have been given several chances to do so.

A high-powered committee constituted in 2014 had given time till August 2016 to these PTA teachers appointed before 2010 to fulfil the minimum educational qualifications. The time was extended several times to allow them to complete the minimum qualifications. The government has kept MA and B.Ed as the educational qualifications for lecturers appointed under the PTA policy.

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).
