Dhanashree Mhatre, a PhD student at Punjab Agricultural University (PAU), has been conferred with the best poster award during the 3rd International Wheat Congress (IWC) 2024, held at Perth Convention Centre, Western Australia, from September 22-27. This biennial event was hosted by the Centre for Crop and Food Innovation (CCFI) of Murdoch University, Australia, in collaboration with the Wheat Initiative. The event was attended by 870 delegates from 52 countries including more than 30 scientists from India.

The award was presented by esteemed wheat scientists, namely, Dr Peter Langridge, Chair of the Scientific Board of International Wheat Initiative Programme, and Rajeev Varshney, director, CCFI.

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).
