Chandigarh, June 21

The Haryana Government will allocate an additional three acres to the National Institute of Design (NID), Umri, Kurukshetra. After this addition, the NID will have a campus area of 23 acres and provide state-of-the-art facilities for the faculty and students.

The decision was taken during a meeting chaired by Chief Secretary Sanjeev Kaushal today.The land will be utilised for the construction of a hostel and other building blocks to facilitate the expansion of the institute.

The Chief Secretary said out of the three acres, two acres would be provided by the Development and Panchayats Department, while the remaining one acre by the Government Polytechnic, Umri, Kurukshetra.

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).
