By 2030, India would achieve 500 GW of installed electricity capacity from non-fossil fuels and 50 per cent of installed electric power was already achieved through non-fossil fuels, Union Minister of new and renewable energy (MNRE) Pralhad Joshi said on Wednesday at the curtain raiser of the eighth assembly of the International Solar Alliance (ISA).

ISA is the largest treaty-based intergovernmental organisation from the Global South, bringing together 124 member and Signatory Countries. This ministerial gathering comes weeks ahead of COP30 in Brazil, shaping priorities for scaling solar energy.

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).
