N Biren Singh, who was elected as the BJP legislature party leader on Sunday, is likely to take oath and assume office as Manipur CM for the second consecutive term within the next two to three days.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced the name of Singh as the Manipur CM after engaging the 32 MLAs of the state. Singh (61), a former football player, led the BJP to victory for the second term and his reappointment as CM was a foregone conclusion. —

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).
