Patiala, September 20

The Womens’ Studies Centre, Punjabi University, here on Monday released a project report on “Phulkari : Reviving and sustaining the traditional handicraft of Punjab”.

The project was sponsored by the Centre for Women Development Studies, New Delhi, and completed by the Director, Women Studies Centre, Prof Dr Ritu Lehal, and other teaching faculty.

Officials said they went to a number of villages and discussed issues and problems faced by artisans. The team has also given recommendations for the survival and sustenance of ‘Phulkari’. During release ceremony, centre officials also shared past major projects and plays in recorded form.

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).
