Jammu, December 7

Chief Secretary Atal Dulloo on Thursday had a detailed review of the schemes under implementation here to revamp all the sectors of agriculture, horticulture, animal husbandry and fisheries in the UT.

The Chief Secretary observed that the agriculture sector played a pivotal role in changing our economy for better as it had not yet been harnessed optimally as per our innate potential. He made out that there were number of centrally sponsored schemes (CSS) currently under implementation in the UT that can be game changers in this direction, if implemented successfully here.

He maintained that the main focus areas for the agriculture department should be on provisioning of quality inputs like seeds, rootstock, fertilisers, equipments bolstered with agri extension for bringing substantial improvement in the productivity of our arable lands.

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).
