Ambala, May 29

Work has finally begun on the state’s first science centre in Ambala, with Science and Technology Minister Anil Vij performing ‘bhoomi poojan’ on Thursday evening.

Christened Aryabhatta Vigyan Kendra, the project will come up over five acres adjacent to the upcoming War Memorial. The project will cost Rs 40 crore.

The centre will have a science gallery, 270-degree immersive projection hall and 3D auditorium. Galleries and exhibits will be installed by the National Council of Science Museums, Kolkata.

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).
