JAMMU, Nov 10: Former Minister R S Chib has been unanimously elected as new president of the Forum of Recognised Colleges (FORCE).
Election of Chib was made during a meeting of members of FORCE, held today under the chairmanship of outgoing president S Harbans Singh, who expressed his desire to resign from the post citing family and personal problems.
Even as all the members insisted upon him to continue as president of FORCE, S Harbans Singh did not agree with this and requested the support of R S Chib to take over responsibility of the President as the latter had already been holding this position and has sufficient experience to look after the functioning of the organization.

He also said that he will try his best to discharge the duties of the president and continue to seek guidance from S Harbans Singh, the Chief Patron of the FORCE.
