Chandigarh, August 16

The state government has issued a formal notification, waiving fee for students studying in government schools for the ongoing academic year.

The announcement to waive the school fee was made by Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh in July. He had said government schools would not charge any admission, readmission and tuition fee from students for the 2020-21 academic session on account of the Covid crisis. — TNS

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).
