The Health Club of Maharishi Dayanand Adarsh Vidyalaya, Sector 22, Chandigarh, organised some activities to observe World Antibiotic Awareness Week. Students of classes III to X participated in speech, slogan writing and poster making activities. The class teachers explained that the celebration aimed to increase awareness about global antimicrobial resistance and to encourage best practices among the general public health workers and policy makers to avoid the further emergence and spread of drug-resistant infections. Teachers motivated students to avoid taking antibiotics without the advice of doctors. Teachers told the students how they can help themselves and their loved ones by avoiding un-prescribed medicines.

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).
