Chandigarh, November 27

The orders to promote 395 post-graduate teachers (PGTs) of Sanskrit have finally been issued by the government. These teachers had been waiting for their promotion since 2007.

Following this decision, the Haryana State Sanskrit Teachers’ Association, under the leadership of state president Ramprasad Kaushik, along with officers and Sanskrit teachers from across the state expressed their gratitude to School Education Minister Kanwar Pal Gujjar by visiting his residence.

The minister said, “Sanskrit is the mother of all languages, in which the knowledge of our Vedas, Upanishads and other religious texts is written. It will always be the endeavour of the state government that this knowledge reaches the people.”

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).
