Priyanka, a PhD student at the Department of Microbiology in the College of Basic Sciences and Humanities, Punjab Agricultural University (PAU), Ludhiana, has received the “Best Student of the Department” award for the 2023-24 academic session from the Microbiologists Society, India, under the presidentship of Dr Arvind Deshmukh.

During her PhD programme, she was conducting research on green technologies for waste valorisation under the guidance of her major advisor, Dr Pooja.

Dr Satbir Singh Gosal, Vice-Chancellor, PAU; Dr Kiran Bains, Dean, College of Basic Sciences and Humanities; and Dr Urmila Gupta Phutela, principal scientist (REE)-cum-head, lauded the student for her achievement.

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).
