In his address, Negi said the state government was continuously working to strengthen the foundational educational infrastructure in tribal and remote areas.

With a vision to improve the quality of education across the state, including in tribal districts, Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu had introduced English-medium instruction in government schools from the first grade.

This initiative aimed to ensure that government school students did not feel inferior when compared to those in private schools. Schools were being equipped with modern facilities to improve the standard of teaching, the Cabinet Minister added.

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).
