Bollywood star Ayushmann Khurrana will soon be honoured by his alma mater, Panjab University, for his contribution to Indian cinema. The actor will travel to Chandigarh to receive the award on May 20 and also interact with the students of the prestigious institute. Panjab University’s alumni list consists of people who have made India proud globally like Ayushmann. The other notable names are Manmohan Singh, Sushma Swaraj, Sunil Bharti Mittal, Shekhar Gupta and Kiran Bedi, among others.

Ayushmann shared, “While studying at the Panjab University’s mass com department, I was astonished to learn about so many seniors who had become national icons. It was a great honour for me to have studied at this prestigious institution, mentored by brilliant teachers.”

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).
