Chandigarh, June 3

Haryana has decided to start teaching work in schools from July and will reopen colleges and universities from August.

Kanwar Pal Gujjar, Haryana Minister for Education, said that since the Ministry of Home Affairs in its Unlock-I guidelines had permitted reopening of the schools in July, the state government had decided to open them.

“We will reopen schools in a phased manner by starting teaching work for classes 10, 11 and 12 from July 1, for classes 6, 7, 8 and 9 after 15 days and for the primary classes in August. The classes will be held in shifts so that half the students of a class attend the first shift and the rest come in the second. We are yet to decide on the timings of the shifts,” said the minister. — TNS

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).
