STOP INFIGHTING OR FACE AXE: CAPT TO POLICE TOP BRASS
CHANDIGARH: Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh on Wednesday asked the top brass of the police to put an immediate end to infighting.
The chief minister had summoned a closed-door meeting of all top officials of the force. The meeting assumes significance in the wake of some serious allegations levelled by a senior IPS officer against two DGPS in the high court on April 6.
The CM noted that he had never seen such things happening in Punjab Police. He said, if needed, he would even approach Union home minister Rajnath Singh to seek the dismissal of any officer found violating discipline in the force.
MOHALI :The Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) will offer students appearing for its exams in the 2018-19 academic session online, quick and reliable verification of academic awards, with prior consent of the student.

The NAD has the approval of the Union cabinet.
