Chandigarh, September 15

With the India’s fisheries sector on a growth trajectory given the multidimensional interventions, a bouquet of 239 projects worth Rs 103.11 crore from 15 states were inaugurated on the third anniversary of the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojna (PMMSY), a flagship scheme of the Department of Fisheries, Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry & Dairying, Government of India, in Indore today.

Parshottam Rupala, Union Minister Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying, was the chief guest at a function organised to launch Matsya Sampada Jagrukta Abhiyan for enhancing outreach across India and ensuring ‘last mile connectivity’.

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).
