UNA, APRIL 28

A centre of excellence in dairy farming will be set up at Basal village of Una district with the technical assistance from the government of Denmark.

Animal Husbandry, Agriculture and Rural Development Minister Virender Kanwar today said the MoU between the two countries would be signed during PM Narendra Modi’s upcoming visit to Denmark.

Kanwar said the dairy centre would be fully automated and robots be used to milk, clean and feed cows. He said the centre would be the first of its kind in North India and training be given to local veterinarians and farmers at the centre, adding that the high milk-yielding cows would be kept here.

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).
