Chandigarh, March 15

A seminar on 'Consumer Awareness on Quality and Services' was held at Chandigarh Press Club here today on the occasion of World Consumer Day.

"When the Consumer Protection Act came into being in 1985, many organisations came together to generate awareness. After so many years, awareness level has gone up but people still need to know about their rights. They must be made aware of how legal action can be taken," said Pawan Kumar Bansal, former Union Minister, while speaking at the seminar.

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).
