Faridkot, March 2

The Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) has reduced the time of handing over question papers to exam centre controllers to check question paper leak. The move comes after question paper of Class XII English exam was leaked.

The PSEB issued new guidelines as per which, if a nationalised bank where question papers are stored is within 3 km radius of the exam centre, controllers will get the custody of the question paper 45 to 60 minutes before the starting time of exam. In case the bank is situated outside the 3 km radius, then controllers will get question papers 60 to 90 minutes before the starting time of the exam.

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).
