Chandigarh, December 23

DAV College, Sector 10, Chandigarh, today received a grant of Rs 150 lakh for infrastructure in science and technology (FIST) from the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India.

The grant will be used for fortifying the teaching and research infrastructure of the college. While sharing this information, principal Dr BC Josan said it was a proud moment for the college to be selected for this grant. The grant would be utilised for setting up research and teaching facilities, computer labs, procurement of books, renovation of laboratories and maintenance purposes.

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).
