The state government today sanctioned Rs 4.53 crore for the construction of science and commerce blocks in 15 senior secondary schools.

Education Minister Harjot Bains said, “Strengthening infrastructure is the top priority of the government.”

Bains said science groups had been started in 12 senior secondary schools and these institutes had been allocated Rs 33 lakh each for the construction of science blocks. He said Rs 19.15 lakh per school had also been sanctioned for the construction of commerce blocks.

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).
