Recognising growing concerns regarding mental health among young adults, Girls Hostel number 11, 12, and 14 at Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) organised an insightful talk on ‘Mental health and well-being’ under the theme ‘My Hostel, My Home’. The session was conducted under the guidance of Dr Nirmal Jaura, Director Students’ Welfare, and Dr Vandana Kanwar, associate professor of the Department of Human Development and Family Studies, delivered an interactive talk.

The session saw participation from undergraduate and postgraduate students, focusing on understanding and managing stress, anxiety, and behavioural challenges. Dr Kanwar elaborated on the difference between fear and panic.

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).
