Days after issuing a warning to police chiefs across the commissionerates and districts, urging them to improve performance or face consequences, the Bhagwant Mann-led AAP Government on Friday effected a major reshuffle in Punjab Police.

Twenty-one IPS officers, including seven Senior Superintendent of Police officers, have been transferred with immediate effect on orders issued by the Secretary, Department of Home Affairs.

The highlights of the reshuffle include posting of Anti-Gangster Task Force AIG Gurmeet Chauhan as SSP, Ferozepur, and rehabilitation of Dr Jyoti Yadav, wife of Education Minister Harjot Bains, as SSP Khanna.

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).
