A seminar on ‘Distillers’ dried grains with solubles’ (DDGS) was held at Dr NN Dastur Auditorium of ICAR- National Dairy Research Institute (NDRI), Karnal, in collaboration with All India Distilleries Association (AIDA), New Delhi.

Director and VC Dheer Singh emphasised the need for sustainable environment, net-zero carbon policy and circular economy. He said the country was gearing up its activities and policies for a quantum jump of bio-ethanol production, focusing on cereals such as maize, rice, etc. in addition to sugar. DDGS have high nutritional value and can be used for microbial fermentation feedstock to produce value-added products and addressing the immediate challenges of the livestock sector by virtue of supplying quality-feed ingredients to augment higher production.

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).
