Chandigarh, April 10

Capt Karnail Singh, a 2015 IAS officer, has sought pre-mature retirement from service. He submitted his papers, seeking retirement to Chief Secretary Anurag Verma today.

He is the second IAS officer seeking pre-mature retirement in the past one month. Parampal Kaur, another IAS officer, had also put in her papers recently. Her pre-mature retirement has not been accepted so far.

Capt Karnail Singh said he was seeking retirement because of personal reasons. “My superannuation is due in September. But I have a lot of personal affairs to attend to and asked the government to relieve me from May 1,” he 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).
