Patiala, February 27

Special children presented their abilities of communication, Braille writing and others on the sixth day of the Science Week celebrations at Punjabi University.

The university involved children with special abilities and needs on the VIth day of its Science Week. The day’s programme was organised with the university’s research centre for technology development for differently abled persons. Officials said students from 13 schools participated in Braille reading and writing, poster making, clay modelling, debate and others.

Deputy Director of Indian Sign Language Research and Training Center Sanjay Kumar, who was part of the event, said the Central Government had made efforts to bring the children with special needs in parallel with others.

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).
