New Delhi, April 22

The government on Friday appointed Suman K Bery as the Vice-Chairman of Niti Aayog, following the sudden resignation of Rajiv Kumar.

Bery will take charge from May 1, an official order said. Kumar’s tenure will end on April 30. Kumar, an eminent economist, took over as the Vice-Chairman of Niti Aayog in August 2017 after the then Vice-Chairman, Arvind Panagariya, exited the government think-tank to return to academics. Kumar played a key role in Niti Aayog’s policy making. —

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).
