With an aim to ramp up healthcare capacity by imparting skill training to the youth, Punjab Skill Development Mission (PSDM) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Baba Farid University of Health Sciences (BFUHS) to train at least 200 candidates

every year.

Additionally, a centre of excellence would also be established at the Health Skill Development Centre, Faridkot, in association with Baba Farid University of Health Sciences.

The MoU was signed by Amrit Singh, Mission Director, PSDM, and Dr Rajeev Sood, Vice Chancellor of the BFUHS on Wednesday in the presence of Aman Arora, Minister of Employment Generation, Skill Development and Training.

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).
