Chandigarh, July 12

The Chandigarh Health Department began the vaccination drive in city colleges today.

Camps were held at three city colleges – Panjab Engineering College, Sector 12; Chandigarh College of Engineering and Technology, Sector 26; and Government College sector, Sector 46.

The drive was inaugurated by Rubinderjit SIngh Brar, Director Higher Education, Chandigarh Administration, and Prof Dalip Kumar, Mission Coordinator, RUSA, Chandigarh Administration, at Post Graduate Government College, Sector 46. Students of the college turned up in large numbers to get themselves inoculated.

Around 200 students, teachers and other beneficiaries from across the tricity were vaccinated on the first day of the drive at Sector 46. The college and the Administration took all necessary steps to inform the students and general public about the vaccination drive.

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).
