Chandigarh, January 7

In response to the prevailing weather conditions, the Education Department has ordered the closure of all government, government-aided and private schools for Classes up to VIII till January 14, with a reopening scheduled for January 15.

Online classes are encouraged for these classes during this period. However, for Classes IX to XII, the school timings remain unchanged, according to the initial order. Schools have the flexibility to regulate timings for the staff and are required to inform all persons concerned. This adjustment is aimed at addressing the cold spell and anticipated dense fog in the region. Schools are advised to adapt to the modified schedule and communicate any changes to the staff and students accordingly.

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).
