Chandigarh, April 4

Counter-intelligence expert ADGP Gaurav Yadav has been appointed Special Principal Secretary to Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.

The appointment has come as a surprise as the post is usually reserved for an IAS officer.

Yadav, son-in-law of former Punjab DGP P. C. Dogra, is a 1992-batch officer. He has held important postings, including IG-Intelligence, during the SAD-BJP Government in 2016. He, however, held mostly low-profile posts during the Congress regime.

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).
