New Delhi, January 27

Amid row over Centre’s proposed amendments to the IAS cadre rules, nine non-NDA ruled states have send their view opposing the plan, while eight BJP-ruled states have given their consent, said officials in the Department of Personnel & Training (DoPT).

They also said the department would soon send a reminder to the states and union territories (UTs), which are yet to respond to the communication. The officials said BJD-ruled Odisha, TMC-ruled West Bengal, Shiv Sena-led coalition government in Maharashtra, Left-ruled Kerala, DMK-led Tamil Nadu, TRS-ruled Telangana, Congress-run Chhattisgarh, JMM-ruled Jharkhand and Congress-ruled Rajasthan had raised objections to the amendments. —

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).
