Amid growing public outrage over prolonged delays in the delivery of public services, allegedly exploited for graft, the AAP government has vowed to ensure timely service delivery.

In a letter sent to all public service departments, Chief Secretary KAP Sinha has called for a list of all pending applications for various public services. He emphasised that keeping these applications unresolved for extended periods could be seen as a means to facilitate graft. “This will not be tolerated,” he said.

The Chief Secretary has set a firm deadline for all departments to submit the information on pending cases to his office by 11 am on March 26.

“In case of not doing so, it will be considered that the concerned officer and secretary are promoting corruption in their department,” he stated.

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).
