Patiala, August 28

Power Minister Harbhajan Singh ETO on Monday said that the PSPCL had suspended an Additional Superintendent Engineer and two Sub Divisional Officers (SDOs) for misuse of material.

ETO said after taking note of the cases of corruption by these officials, swift action was taken against Additional SE Sukhdarshan Pal Singh and SDOs Gian Singh and Harmandeep Singh. They were accused of misusing PSPCL material, including an ACSR conductor and a 66-KV cable.

The minister added the officials were suspended after a preliminary enquiry in two separate cases.

The involvement of Chief Engineers, Superintending Engineers and other officials was being investigated, ETO said.

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).
