Palampur, May 27

The quality seed production department of CSK HP Agriculture University, Palampur, has been conferred with the prestigious Best Performance Centre Award 2022-23.

VC Prof HK Chaudhary said under the All India Coordinated Research Project on Seed (Crops), quality seed production in the Department of Seed Science and Technology had been awarded the national award. It was conferred under the Quality Seed Production Component. Dr RK Kapila, Nodal Officer (Seed), received it from the Deputy Director General, Indian Council of Agriculture Research, New Delhi.

Chaudhary said the All India Coordinated Research Project on Seed (Crops) was going on in 38 state agricultural universities and the selection of CSK HP Agriculture University proved the standards adopted by it for the production of quality seed.

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).
