New Delhi, March 20

The Jawaharlal Nehru University’s (JNU) election body has formed a sub-committee to address the needs of persons with disabilities (PwD) during elections.

It has implemented several measures to ensure accessibility for PwD students. This includes arrangements to accept questions in Braille format and introduction of a digital voting system for visually impaired students.

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).
