Senior advocate Vikas Singh has been re-elected president of the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA).

Singh – who got 1,005 votes—defeated his nearest rival senior advocate and former Solicitor General Ranjit Kumar by a margin of 251 votes. Kumar could get only 754 votes.

Senior advocate Pradeep Kumar Rai was elected vice president, while advocate Rahul Kaushik was elected as honorary secretary of SCBA, according to results declared on Wednesday night.

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).
