Punjab Governor has approved the appointment of Dr Sushendra Kumar Mishra as the Vice Chancellor of the Sardar Beant Singh State University, Gurdaspur. Earlier, he was the registrar of IK Gujral Punjab technical University, Kapurthala.

Prior to the appointment, Dr Susheel Mittal, VC of IK Gujral PTU, was holding the additional charge of the Gurdaspur university.

Besides, government’s effort to appoint Prof DP Goyal as the first regular VC of Ferozepur’s Shaheed Bhagat Singh State University had failed after he declined to join, citing personal reasons. The charge of the Ferozepur university remains with Mittal. The Maharaja Ranjit Singh PTU, Bathinda, was also without a regular VC.

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).
