Jalandhar, May 23

Rushali Kler (24), daughter of IAS officer Babita Kler, has cleared the UPSC examination in her first attempt, attaining 492nd rank in the result declared on Tuesday.

Rushali, who hails from Chhoti Baradari, completed BTech in Electronics and Communication Engineering from PEC, Chandigarh, in 2020.

Rushali will be the third generation from the family to step into bureaucracy. After former IPS officer Gobind Ram was killed in a blast in 1990, his daughter Babita Kler had got the job as PCS officer on compassionate grounds. Babita, who was promoted as IAS officer, is serving as the CEO of the state health agency.

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).
