New Delhi, September 29

As the newly appointed Chief of Defence Staff, Lt Gen Anil Chauhan (retd), takes over on Friday, he faces a series of challenges including targets set by the government as well by his predecessor General Bipin Rawat to transform the military.

These include a wide spectrum of tasks like creating theatre commands, having common logistics for the forces and right-sizing the force to meet modern-day needs. The three Services — Army, Air Force and Navy — are not ‘integrated’ to have commonality of logistics, operations, maintenance, transport, training, support services or even communication networks.

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).
