Chandigarh, March 25

All five Rajya Sabha (Upper House) candidates from Punjab, who were elected unopposed on Thursday, secured their certificates on Friday.

Four candidates received their certificate by hand, while Harbhajan Singh’s certificate was received by his authorised representative.

While Sanjeev Arora received his certificate from Punjab Chief Electoral Officer-cum-Observer S Karuna Raju and RS Election Returning Officer-cum-Vidhan Sabha Secretary Surinder Pal, Sandeep Kumar Pathak, accompanied by Cabinet Ministers Harpal Singh Cheema and Lal Chand Kataruchak, was given the certificate by Pal.

In the evening, Raghav Chadha, a representative of Harbhajan Singh, and Ashok Mittal received their certificates.

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).
