Taking a step towards environmental protection, Maharshi Dayanand University (MDU) in Rohtak, has decided to observe every Wednesday as Green Day. Under this initiative, teaching, non-teaching and HKRN staff have been urged not to use vehicles within the university campus on Wednesdays.

Vice-Chancellor Prof Rajbir Singh said the university, known for its excellence in education and research, was also committed to fulfilling its social and environmental responsibilities.

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).
