Chandigarh, December 1

Governor Banwarilal Purohit has given his assent to the Punjab-Affiliated Colleges (Security of Service) Amendment Bill, 2023. The assent was reportedly granted by the Governor yesterday.

This Bill was passed by the Punjab Vidhan Sabha during its June 19-20 special sitting of the fourth Budget session. However, the decision on none of the other three Bills passed then — the Sikh Gurdwaras (Amendment) Bill, 2023; The Punjab Universities Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2023; and The Punjab Police (Amendment) Bill, 2023 — has reportedly been taken.

Another Bill — The State Vigilance Commission (Repeal) Bill, 2022, — passed by the Vidhan Sabha in September 2022, too, is under consideration of the Governor.

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).
