Phagwara, November 17

As many as 517 students of Kamla Nehru College for Women, Phagwara, were conferred degrees on Saturday. Union Minister of State, Som Parkash, was the chief guest on the occasion. Principal Dr Kirana Walia, members of the management and staff welcomed the chief guest and his wife Anita Som Parkash.

Students of various streams like commerce, arts, science and computer science were conferred the degrees. The chief guest motivated the students to use their education for the upliftment of the downtrodden and to enlighten their surroundings.

Principal Dr Kiran Walia expressed gratitude to Som Parkash and other guests for gracing the occasion.

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).
