Chandigarh, August 23

To empower the youth of the border districts of the state, the state government has developed Government College, Kala Afghana, as a physical education institute and opened a new degree college at Ladhupur in Gurdaspur district.

Higher Education Minister Tript Rajinder Singh Bajwa today said the Kala Afghana college would provide new opportunities to the youth in the field of sports. He said the institute had been made a constituent college of the newly established Sports University at Patiala. The minister said the new degree college at Ladhupur would provide an opportunity to rural youth to pursue higher studies without having to travel to far-off places. — 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).
