The Institute of Cost Accountants of India has contributed Rs 2.50 crore to the PM CARES Fund to supplement government’s efforts towards scaling up the public healthcare infrastructure in the country.

“The challenge of gigantic proportions cannot be met without each one of us going beyond the call of duty. We are thankful to the elected representatives, members and students at large for their support at this crucial time,” said Balwinder Singh, president of the institute.

Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi has constituted the Prime Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations Fund (PM CARES Fund) with the primary objective of dealing with any emergency situation such as the one posed by COVID-19 pandemic.

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).
