Panchkula, May 27

On the eve of World Menstrual Hygiene Day, a webinar on sanitary pad making was organised by social activist Renu Mathur, who is associated with many women empowerment activities.

She taught volunteers from Jaipur, Delhi, Chandigarh, Bathinda and Panchkula about how to make reusable pads from old fabric available at home through a virtual training session. “When we went to the rural areas, it was found that women would use old clothes and that’s not ideal for reproductive health of a woman. It is imperative that the cloth pad is stitched in way that is not only neat hut also hygienic.so as to avoid unnecessary staining and can also be washed , reused,and disposed in an environmentally safe way,”she added. — 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).
