The District Bar Association (DBA), Ludhiana, has appointed Lokesh Batta as the returning officer (RO) to conduct its annual elections, scheduled to be held on January 28. He is the youngest RO appointed in the DBA history.

The decision was taken during a General House meeting held under the chairmanship of DBA president Chetan Verma at the District Courts Complex here.

Besides him, six assistant returning officers, Himakar Kumar, Mandeep Kaur Bhatti, Kulwinder Kaur (Dolly), Inderjit Kaur, Jagtar Singh and Ravinder Singh (Prince Arora), were appointed.

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).
