Chandigarh, August 23

Members of the Students For Society (SFS), a Panjab University students’ political outfit, staged a protest against the fee hike.

Students raised slogans against the authorities concerned and demanded an immediate rollback of the fee hike. They said the fee structure should be fixed for four years without any hike. Earlier, the SFS had started a campaign against the fee hike in the UIET department.

“The SFS staged a protest in front of the director’s office. Students boycotted their classes and protested in large numbers,” said Sukhman from the SFS.

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).
