New Delhi: The Periodic Labour Force Survey data indicated a decline in the unemployment rate to 3.2 per cent in 2022-23. The youth employment has risen, with the unemployment rate for aged 15-29 years declining from 17.8 per cent in 2017-18 to 10 per cent in 2022-23. Female labour force participation has also increased due to growth in agriculture output and improved access to basic amenities. Rural wages grew at over 5 per cent annually in FY24, benefiting from robust agricultural growth.

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).
