Chandigarh, March 15

The Panjab University’s Non-Teaching Employees’ Federation today sent a representation to the Registrar of Panjab University (PU), demanding a ban on public enquiry. Federation’s president Deepak Kaushik stated: “The university authority has issued an advisory on Covid-19 and has cancelled all meetings and seminars etc. But the inflow of public enquiry has not been banned. In the absence of such orders, the employees will have to entertain the public enquiry.”

He also added that all university employees had not been issued hand sanitisers, masks or dampers to adopt preventive measures and requested the authorities to save the employees from the deadly virus by assuring hygienic conditions at the varsity. — TNS

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).
