Patiala, January 12

Patiala Locomotive Works (PLW), a unit of Indian Railways, has received the green platinum rating from Indian Green Building Council (IGBC). The rating is accorded by the Confederation of Indian Industries (CII).

Dr Prateek Shrivastava, director, Sustainergic Tech Pvt Ltd, handed over the certificate to Ashok Kumar, Principal Chief Administrative Officer, PLW, and others. The IGBC with the support of the Environment Directorate of the Indian Railways, has developed the Green Railway Rating System that helps address national priorities, including water conservation, handling of waste, energy efficiency and health and occupants well-being.

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).
