Shimla, November 21

Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur launched a domestic liquid boronated calcium nitrate fertiliser — a joint venture of the Himachal Pradesh State Cooperative Marketing and Consumer’s Federation (HIMFED) and Gujarat State Fertilizers and Chemicals Ltd. (GSFC) — under the Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan here recently.

The GSFC has introduced five products in Himachal — liquid boronated calcium nitrate, calcium nitrate, nutri plus, ammonium sulphate and boronated calcium — for farmers and horticulturists.

The Chief Minister congratulated the GSFC for introducing the fertiliser in the country, which was earlier being imported from other countries. He said the liquid fertiliser was a new concept, as it would be prepared as per the requirements of different areas of the country. — TNS

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).
