Patiala, December 16

Voting for the election of the executive body of the District Bar Association was held here today. Around 1,489 advocates cast their votes to elect six office-bearers and 10 executive members.

KP Singh was elected president. He defeated his contender by a margin of 24 votes. Amanpreet Singh Virk became the vice-president, Sachin Sharma became the secretary, Babandeep Singh Kharoud was elected the new joint secretary and Amandeep Kaur became the librarian.

The result for the post of cashier could not be announced due to a lack of agreement. The votes have been sealed to be reviewed on Saturday.

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).
