Chandigarh, May 14

CM Manohar Lal Khattar said all universities of the state should make education available from KG (kindergarten) to PG (post-graduation) under the New Education Policy.

He said the fee of poor children studying in these universities would be paid by the government. A new scheme would be introduced for this very soon. The CM said emphasis should be laid on making the universities financially robust and self-sufficient so that they do not depend on government grants.

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).
