The 16th National Conference on Health Professions Education (NCHPE) was inaugurated at Christian Medical College (CMC).

The inaugural ceremony was graced by Dr Abhijat Chandra Kant Sheth, chairman, National Medical Commission (NMC). Dr Sheth emphasised the importance of competency-based medical education and the collective role of educators and institutions in shaping future healthcare professionals. A major highlight of the event was the first-ever hackathon at NCHPE, where 23 student teams from across the country presented innovative ideas in medical education.

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).
