Chandigarh Post Offices

Within hours of assuming office, the Congress government in Punjab on Thursday ordered transfers and postings of 12 top bureaucrats, appointing 1984-batch IAS officer Karan Avtar Singh as the new Chief Secretary.

The first postal Automated Teller Machine (ATM) in Punjab and Union Territory of Chandigarh was opened at the General Post Office (GPO) in Chandigarh on Friday.

Senior IAS officer Ashok Khemka was today at the centre of another controversy with Punjab government stating that he has been sent on election duty and hence the post held by him has been temporarily given to another officer, an order he contested.

With exactly a week to go before current Army Chief General VK Singh retires, there is still no clarity on who would be the officers heading two of the Army's crucial commands - the Eastern Command headquarterd at Kolkata and the Chandimandir (Chandigarh)-based Western Command.

A disco-loving Chandigarh police officer who got embroiled in a row after misbehaving with two young women at a discotheque here has been suspended from his post, police said on Thursday.
