In line with the guidelines of the Ministry of Health, and the Punjab State Blood Transfusion Council, Ramgarhia Engineering College organised a special awareness programme to encourage students to donate blood.

The event was held under the guidance of Ramgarhia Educational Council chairperson Manpreet Kaur Bhogal, with arrangements coordinated by Principal Naveen Dhillon and the college staff. Around 150 students participated in the programme.

Dr MP Singh delivered a detailed presentation on blood donation through a powerpoint session. He explained what blood donation is, the eligible age groups, and its impact on the human body.

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).
