Chandigarh, June 19

The Army has ordered disciplinary proceedings against 11 soldiers for their alleged role in the leak of the question paper of an internal entrance examination to a diploma course being conducted by the Corps of Engineers.

The paper leak happened at the Bombay Engineers Group and Centre, Khadki, near Pune in 2021. Based upon reports, a court of inquiry was ordered to investigate the matter, which held the soldiers “blameworthy”. The soldiers are being tried by court martial under various provisions of the Army Act.

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).
