Chamba, September 16

Deputy Commissioner Apoorv Devgan yesterday launched the “Meri Policy Mere Hath” scheme under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana at an awareness camp organised by the Agriculture Department at the Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Saru.

He said the flagship scheme was a doorstep distribution drive to deliver crop insurance policies to the farmers. He handed over policy documents of crop insurance to the eligible farmers. About 50 farmers participated in the awareness camp.

Devgan said that during the campaign, crop insurance documents would be handed over to all eligible farmers of the district within 20 days.

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).
