BCM Arya Model Senior Secondary School, Shastri Nagar, Ludhiana, was declared the winner of the ‘Cyber Safe School Award’ at a national-level event organised by CyberPeace Foundation in collaboration with the NCERT and Google.org.

The historic achievement made the school the first in the state to have achieved the feat, demonstrating its unwavering commitment to cybersecurity. The school introduced the Cyber Ambassador Club in 2018, and since then, members have carried out programmes and activities to sensitise students on cybersecurity, said Ambica Soni, club in charge.

The award ceremony brought together a number of global experts, policymakers, industry leaders, and members of academia to discuss and deliberate on the pressing challenges to trust and safety in the digital age.

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).
