To prepare students for natural disasters, especially earthquakes, a disaster management drill on the theme “Drop, Hold, and Cover” was conducted at Maharishi Dayanand Adarsh Vidyalaya, Chandigarh. The drill began with the sounding of the alarm bell. At once, students and teachers practiced the three-step safety action. Teachers guided the students in each classroom, ensuring proper safety positions. The drill helped students understand that practicing such safety measures can save lives during real disasters.

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).
