IK Gujral Punjab Technical University (IKGPTU) has announced that it will conduct online examination for its more than 1 lakh students for the ongoing semesters.

The university is already working to find the best model for a successful online examination process. Prof Ajay Kumar Sharma, Vice-Chancellor, IKGPTU, said a mock test would be conducted within next few days. He said they had conducted the first phase of the initiative successfully.

Prof Sharma said they decided that the examination process would go online, right from paper setting to the conduct of exam. The mode will be finalised after getting the details of IT infrastructure available in institutes as well as with students at their present locations. Prof Sharma said the university examination for the final semester of all courses would start from July 1.

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).
