To enhance preparedness and response mechanisms in the face of natural disasters, a team from the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) conducted a training session today for administrative officers and staff of Kapurthala district.

Under the leadership of Additional Deputy Commissioner (General) Navneet Kaur Bal, the training was held at the District Administrative Complex. Experts from the NDRF briefed government officials on immediate steps to be taken by various departments in the event of a natural calamity.

The session also included training on the proper usage of technical equipment and machinery employed during rescue operations.

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).
