Chandigarh, January 15

The online class initiative by the Punjab School Education Department during the winter holidays received a great response from students.

School Education Minister Harjot Singh Bains said the department had initiated the classes during winter break in consonance with Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann’s commitment to prepare students for a competitive world.

“During the vacation, the department had started the classes through various online platforms such as Facebook and YouTube from December 30, 2022.

“This was received well by students as well as teachers. More than 12 lakh students have attended classes conducted through the digital mode till date,” the CabinetMinister added.

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).
