The CPD said, “The Himachal Pradesh JICA forestry project has given a boost to self-employment in the handloom sector and improved the economy of the people of rural areas.” He said various SHGs are preparing Kullvi shawls, pattus, stoles, pattis, caps and other traditional garments. He added that the handloom and weaver products being prepared through various SHGs associated with the forestry project are getting a new identity.

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).
