With the launch of the ‘Inclusive Bharat, Viksit Bharat’ public service announcement (PSA) on Wednesday, a powerful message has emerged to confront the daily challenges faced by individuals with disabilities. Created by the National Centre for Promotion of Employment for Disabled People (NCPEDP) in partnership with PVR Inox Limited, Delhi Metro, and Mphasis Foundation, a compelling PSA was released to provoke thought and inspire action.

The launch event was attended by Rajesh Aggarwal, Secretary of the Department of Empowerment for Persons with Disabilities (DEPwD), who emphasised government’s commitment to creating a dignified environment for all individuals with disabilities.

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).
