According to an official circular issued by the university on Thursday, the decision has been taken keeping in mind the adverse weather conditions and to ensure the safety of students, faculty and administrative staff.

Earlier on Wednesday, HPU had announced the closure of all its departments and centres till September 6, in line with the state government’s directive to keep all educational institutions — government and private — shut till September 7. During this period, the university has shifted classes to online mode.

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).
