Palampur, May 29

An MSc student of the CSK HP Agriculture University, Palampur, has been selected for doctoral studies, under a full scholarship programme, by the Clemson University, USA.

The university vice-chancellor (VC) said B Jabez Raju, a student of the Department of Entomology in the College of Agriculture, would be provided a scholarship of Rs 20 lakh per annum for the next six year by the US government.

Raju said his research work would be based on insects and cancer, which might also help in treating the infection in humans. Raju completed his graduation from Agriculture University, Guntur, in Andhra Pradesh and thereafter he passed the national examination of ICAR and got admission at CSK HP Agriculture University.

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).
