A memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed between IIT-Mandi and the Art of Living Foundation, strengthening collaboration in consciousness and mental well-being research.

The Mind, Brain, and Consciousness Conference (MBCC 2025) commenced on the IIT campus here today. The four-day conference brings together leading scientists, scholars, thinkers, and spiritual leaders from across the world. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, founder of the Art of Living Foundation delivered the key note address.

Prof Laxmidhar Behera, Director of IIT Mandi and General Chair of MBCC, emphasised that consciousness is central to both science and self-realisation.

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).
