Amritsar, September 10

The UGC-Human Resource Development Centre (HRDC) of Guru Nanak Dev University started with its first online faculty induction programme for newly recruited faculty. This will be 28 days programme as per Gurudakshta guidelines given by the UGC.

Dr Manoj Kumar, in-charge (Examinations), presided over the inaugural session. Dr Rajbir Bhatti, Deputy Director, HRDC, briefed about the participants, who are from seven different states including Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Punjab, Rajasthan, Sikkim, Tripura and West Bengal.

The HRDC is endeavouring to work towards excellence and utilising the pandemic situation to invite eminent educationists. The first academic session featured a lecture by Padma Shri awardee Prof GD Yadav from Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai.

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).
