Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann today inaugurated a government degree college at Sukhchain village, which is a part of the open wildlife sanctuary area spread over 25 villages. The foundation stone of the college was laid by the then minister Pargat Singh on December 20, 2021.

The CM said after educating the girls till class 10 or 12, people in villages used to start looking for a groom for their marriage. It was considered less safe for girls from this area to go to Abohar and Malout for higher studies. Now, 250 students of the area, including 150 girls, would have access to higher education near their homes.

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).
