Chandigarh, August 23

The Punjab government on Wednesday promoted Patiala Range IG Mukhwinder Singh Chhina as Additional Director General of Police (ADGP).

Home Secretary Gurkirat Kirpal Singh issued the orders in this regard.

While serving as IG Patiala Range, Chhina handled several serious law and order situations, including Dera Sacha Sauda crisis in Bathinda and Kali Mata Mandir crisis in Patiala. He was also instrumental in handling the farmers’ agitation at PSPCL headquarters at Patiala.

Chhina has also been awarded President’s Medal for Meritorious Service.

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).
