Governor Gulab Chand Kataria appointed Prof Rattan Singh as the new Vice-Chancellor of Jagat Guru Nanak Dev Punjab State Open University, Patiala. A legal luminary with an expertise in constitutional law, Prof Rattan Singh has teaching and research experience of over three decades.

An alumnus of Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar, Prof Rattan Singh has served as Head of the Department of Law at GNDU and Director, University Institute of Legal Studies, Chandigarh.

He has accomplished UGC projects on “Right to education: Some pitfalls and policies of govt – A study with special reference to state of Punjab” and “Subordinate judiciary in India under stress and strain”.

He has also authored several books.

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).
