Rohtak, May 11

The agitation of faculty members of Pt Lakhmi Chand State University of Performing and Visual Arts (PLC SUPVA), Rohtak, entered the 10th day today.

The Haryana Federation of University and College Teachers Organisation have extended support to SUPVA teachers, who are protesting against the non-implementation of the Seventh Central Pay Commission norms, stoppage of increments and promotions in the UGC pay scales.

Indranil Ghosh, president, PLC SUPVA Teachers Association, said: “The university teachers have not got their due remuneration as per the UGC pay scales and pay panel for nearly a decade.”

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).
