A tree plantation programme was organised on the premises of Govt Model High School, Mauli Colony, Chandigarh. Headmistress Parveen Malik and other staff members took part in the programme enthusiastically. The slogan ‘plant tree, save life’ helped raised awareness regarding the environment. On the occasion, the Headmistress said that the plants are contributing to the environment in a great way. They provide oxygen, improve air quality, support wildlife, preserve soil and conserve water. She further added that by performing its function of photosynthesis, it contributes more than it takes from the planet. She said that if trees are not planted in large numbers, all the living organisms will have to bear the brunt of human negligence.

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).
