Mansa, June 3

In important postings and transfers pertaining to the Public Relations Department, the government has posted 2001-batch IAS officer Gurkirat Kirpal as Secretary, Information and Public Relations, replacing 2005 IAS officer Malwinder Singh Jaggi, who has been posted as Secretary, PWD.

Kirpal will continue to hold the charge of Secretary, Food and Supplies. Kirpal was Secretary, Food and Supplies, in the previous Capt Amaridner Singh government. Sonali Giri, a 2009-batch IAS officer, has been posted as Director, Public Relations, in place of Sumit Jarangal.

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).
