Marking Gandhi Jayanti, 485 NCC girl cadets and staff from the 1 Punjab Girls Battalion celebrated “Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam” - a tree plantation drive and Swachata Hi Seva with the theme ‘Swabhaav Swachata - Sanskaar Swachata’ during the Combined Annual Training Camp at RR Bawa DAV College, Batala. The event witnessed the gracious presence of Commandant HS Bajwa (retd) and officials from the RR Bawa DAV College.

The programme kicked off by emphasising on the significance and vision of the “Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam” initiative.

Each cadet and staff committing themselves to plant 300 saplings in the college gardens, symbolising their dedication to being responsible citizens and protecting the Earth for future generations.

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).
