Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday addressed the 108th Indian Science Congress on the theme ‘Science and Technology for Sustainable Development with Women Empowerment’.

The PM exhorted the scientific community to make India the leading centre of innovation and futuristic scientific development.

“We need to look at the developments in the rest of the world, but at the same time our scientific community should work beyond what others are doing,” he said.

He said today’s scientists should work for providing solutions to the problems faced by the world.

He said the senior scientists should develop an institutional mechanism that would attract younger generation to take up science.

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).
