The District Programme Management Unit (DPMU), Kurukshetra, under the Atal Bhujal Yojana, organised an exposure visit to Maharana Pratap Horticultural University (MHU), Anjanthali, Karnal. Farmers, women farmers and Village Water and Sanitation Committee (VWSC) members from Shahabad Block took part in the visit.

It focused on practical learning of water management strategies and horticultural innovations. Participants explored water conservation practices and projects at the university’s research station.

Dr SK Malhotra, Vice Chancellor, MHU, encouraged the adoption of sustainable agricultural methods. DPMU experts said, “The visit served as an important step in strengthening community understanding and involvement in groundwater management and sustainable agriculture.”

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).
