Dr Manisha Dubey, DST Senior Scientist from the Department of Vegetable Science, Punjab Agricultural University (PAU), Ludhiana, has brought laurels to the university by securing the best poster award at the National Conference on Plant-Microbe Interaction for Sustainable Agriculture and Food Security, held at Rani Laxmi Bai Central Agricultural University (RLBCAU), Jhansi, on January 3-4. The conference was organised by the Indian Phytopathological Society, IARI, Pusa, New Delhi, in collaboration with RLBCAU.

The award was presented for her research on ‘Appraisal of Cherry Tomato Genotypes against Leaf Curl Virus and Root-Knot Nematode under Simulated Epiphytotic Conditions,’ co-authored with Dr Salesh Kumar Jindal, Dr Sayeed AH Patel, Dr Abhishek Sharma, and Dr Sukhjeet Kaur.

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).
