Hisar, December 27

Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University (HAU) has got two patents registered with the Centre for innovation in the de-stoning of ber and a pedal-operated amla pricking machine.

The university Vice-Chancellor Prof BR Kamboj said the patents have been granted by the government. He added that the pedal-operated machine would help pricking amla, which is used to prepare “murabba”, candy, pickle etc.

Dr Sandeep Arya, a university spokesperson, said the machine could be used by farmers in the setting up of small- and medium-scale business units. “These machines would be cost-effective. The university will tie up with manufacturers, who would prepare machines for market sale,” he added.

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).
