Chandigarh, January 1

Punjab on Saturday appointed B Chandrashekhar as the new Director, Bureau of Investigation, besides transferring six SSPs.

The Director, Bureau of Investigation, post was lying vacant since previous head SK Asthana went on leave in early December.

AK Pandey, who had issued the controversial order asking police to play the Gurbani on loudspeakers to drown the sloganeering against Chief Minister at his functions, has been promoted and posted as ADGP, Special Protection Unit.

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).
