Students, trainees, teachers and staff of all departments enthusiastically took part in various sports competitions — cricket, football, badminton, chess, etc. Chancellor SS Minhas said participation in sports encouraged mental and physical development.

Sports Committee chairman Sanjeev Uppal said MMU, Solan, aimed to prepare future leaders who were not only skilled in their fields but also possessed sportsmanship and leadership qualities.

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).
