Ishwerpreet Kaur Jawanda was felicitated with the Chancellor’s Medal by Punjab Governor Gulab Chand Kataria during the convocation held at Punjab Agriculture University (PAU), Ludhiana, recently. Her exceptional academic performance, coupled with her research on ‘Seasonal Emergence of Pathogenic Bacteria in Salads and Remedial Measures,’ fetched her the laurel.

Presently, Ishwerpreet is pursuing her doctorate in microbiology at Punjab University, Chandigarh, and is poised to work towards upgrading the lifestyle of rural people by spreading awareness on the causes and consequences of infections caused by microbes due to ignorance.

She was also felicitated for securing the highest overall credit point average in the master’s programme in microbiology at the university.

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).
