Chandigarh, August 23

Justice Ashok Kumar Verma, a retired Judge of the Punjab and Haryana High Court, has taken over as the Chairman of Punjab Educational Tribunal after being nominated by the State Governor.

His appointment is expected to bolster the functionality of the Educational Tribunal, which plays a crucial role in matters related to educational affairs and governance within the state. The appointment comes at a time when many service matters involving faculty members of educational institutes were awaiting adjudication of disputes.

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).
