Major Ajaib Singh Convent School, Jeevanwala, celebrated World Paper Bag Day. NCC cadets from the school's 5 Punjab Battalion, Moga unit, participated in the celebration. NCC ANO Amritpal Kaur Khosa and caretaker Veerpal Kaur emphasised the importance of using paper bags instead of plastic to protect the environment. Director/Principal Dr SS Brar highlighted the eco-friendly benefits of paper bags, noting that plastic poses a long-term threat to the planet. The NCC cadets prepared paper bags and distributed them among villagers, spreading awareness about the harmful effects of plastic. The event concluded with a pledge to "Say no to plastic - Choose paper bags!"

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).
