Chandigarh, October 3

President of India Droupadi Murmu will attend the 52nd Convocation of Punjab Engineering College (Deemed to be University) on October 9.

The convocation, which will be held after a gap of two years, has been combined with the closing ceremony of the Centenary Year celebrations of the institute. As many as 669 BTech, 168 MTech and 34 PhD degrees will be awarded to students.

The President will also inaugurate the new Secretariat building in Sector 9 at 10 am.

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).
