Amritsar, March 29

To create awareness regarding responsible handling of emergency accidental cases in Punjab, 108 ambulance services organised first responder programme for students of Amritsar Public School. The programme was organised to make students aware about effective first aid training and its importance whenever an emergency occurs, be it at home, workplace or any public area. The programme was organised in the presence of FRP trainer Jaswinder Singh and cluster manager Pawandeep Singh.

FRP trainer Jaswinder Singh explained how first aid in emergency situations like CPR, heart attack, bleeding, fracture, snake bite, fainting, choking, and hypoglycemia, etc must be given to the patients. Saikat Mukherjee, Project Head, 108 Ambulance, said, “Our main aim of organising the event in school was to enlighten the students about importance of first aid.” —

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).
