Hoshiarpur, July 24

In collaboration with the Water Resources Department, Chandigarh, a seminar on save groundwater was organised in Rayat Bahra Education City. Experts from the Department of Water Resources, Ministry of Jal Shakti, participated in the seminar and discussed ways to protect and conserve groundwater.

Dinesh Tiwari said, “The groundwater problem is in a serious situation, which everyone has to deal with cooperatively.” Scientist Aditya Sharma apprised everyone about the condition of Punjab’s groundwater. He said we should adopt modern technology and reduce the comsumption of groundwater in farming. Sunil Kumar gave detailed information about the geography of India’s groundwater status and its utilisation.

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).
