Chandigarh, August 17

Three Indo-Tibetan Border Police Force (ITBP) personnel have been awarded the President’s Police Medal for Distinguished Service while 11 others have been awarded the President’s Police Medal for Meritorious Service.

Those decorated for distinguished service include Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Raman Khadwal and Inspectors Hansha Dut Bhatt and Tilak Raj.

The recipients for the meritorious service medal include DIGs Gambhir Singh Chauhan and Achal Singh, Commandants Davinder Singh and Ashoka Kumar Singh, and officers Sukhbir Singh, Gajnish Kumar Sold, Sher Singh Deepak, Amar Singh and Ram Larete Pal.

Inspectors Bhupal Singh Adhikari and Banshi Dhar Joshi were also awarded for meritorious service.

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).
