Lieutenant General Prashant Srivastava assumed command of the strategic Kashmir-based Chinar Corps on Saturday.

Srinagar-based Public Relation Officer (Defence), in a statement, said Lt Gen Rajiv Ghai handed over the reins of the Chinar Corps after being at the helm for the past 16 months.

On assumption of command, the new corps commander paid obeisance at the Chinar War Memorial at Badami Bagh Cantonment, Srinagar, honouring the sacrifices of the bravehearts of the nation.

A battle-hardened soldier, Lieutenant General Srivastava, during his 34-year military career, has held numerous prestigious command and staff appointments.

He also extended warm greetings to the people of Kashmir, reaffirming his commitment to work closely with the civil administration and the community to build a peaceful and prosperous future.

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).
