Jalandhar, July 3

Lieutenant General Vijay B Nair, General Officer Commanding, Vajra Corps, handed over command of Vajra Corps to Lieutenant General Ajay Chandpuria on Monday.

Nair, an alumnus of NDA and IMA, had taken over the command of Vajra Corps on May 15 last year. During his command of the ‘Defenders of Punjab’, the General Officer’s inspiring leadership and transformative initiatives have optimised operational tenacity and administrative alacrity. He has led Vajra Corps ‘from the front’ enhancing the state of operational preparedness by focusing on military training and jointness with sister services.

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).
