Shimla, April 10

The SJVN foundation has been conferred with the CIDC Vishwakarma Awards-2022 in the category of the “Corona Warriors Award” and “Partners in Progress”. These awards have been conferred on the SJVN for its contributions and initiatives to the field of health and hygiene, education and skill development, infrastructural development and sustainable development under its Corporate Social Responsibility. Geeta Kapur, Director (Personnel), SJVN Foundation, has also been honoured with the “CIDC Chairman’s Commendation Trophy” in the individual capacity.

The SJVN chairman said it was a proud moment for the organisation and these awards were a testimony to the CSR contributions made by the SJVN.

Since inception, the SJVN has spent over Rs 340 crore on various CSR activities.

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).
