Gurdaspur, July 29

The Punjab State Human Rights Commission (PSHRC) has taken suo muto cognisance of news item “Gurdaspur schools in pathetic state, 28 of 90 have no teacher” published in The Tribune on Monday.

A press note issued by the PSHRC said, “The commission comprising Chairperson Justice Sant Parkash and member Justice Nirmaljit Kaur has taken suo muto cognisance of the matter and called for a report from the Director General School Education, Mohali, on or before the next date of hearing on November 19.”

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).
