Mount Carmel School, Chandigarh, was honoured at the prestigious ‘Swachh Chandigarh – Ward Ranking Launch & School Star Awards’ organised by the Municipal Corporation, Chandigarh. The award recognised the school’s innovative efforts towards cleanliness, hygiene, waste segregation and environmental sustainability. Principal Dr Parveena John Singh, under the guidance of Founders & Directors Dr Earnest Charles J Samuel and Dr Annie Charles Samuel, reaffirmed the school’s commitment to nurturing environmentally responsible citizens and inspiring students to contribute towards a cleaner, greener and sustainable Chandigarh.

THE TRIBUNE, India’s oldest, daily English-language newspaper, was first published on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan), and save for 40 days in the immediate aftermath of Partition, has come out every day over the last 145 years. THE TRIBUNE was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist of the time. The newspaper is run by a five-member Trust, which is chaired by Shri N N Vohra, former Governor of J&K State (2008-2018); as well as Justice S S Sodhi, former Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court; Shri Gurbachan Jagat, former Governor of Manipur; Lt Gen. Shamsher Singh Mehta, former Western Army Commander; Shri Paramjit Singh Patwalia, Senior Advocate in the Supreme Court.

THE TRIBUNE is free, objective, and independent. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language, are the hallmarks of the paper.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
