Khalsa College for Women, in collaboration with the Air Care Centre and Clean Air Punjab, has officially launched the Zero Waste Management Programme on campus. This initiative ensures that Khalsa College for Women becomes a zero-waste institution, reinforcing its commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable development.

The programme includes comprehensive waste segregation, composting and recycling strategies aimed at minimising waste generation and maximising resource efficiency. A key component of the initiative is the vermi-composting unit on campus, managed by Dr Sita, Assistant Professor of Botany at the College.

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).
