Amritsar, May 9

In recognition of her unparalleled bravery, Dr Anupama Gupta was presented an award and salutation by Member of Parliament Gurjeet Singh Aujla on behalf of the FICCI Ladies Organisation (FLO). Dr Gupta had lost both her legs while saving victims of a highway pile up in December last year.

She has also been given lifetime honorary membership of the FLO as an appreciation for her act of inimitable bravery.

“Dr Anupama Gupta has set an example of altruism and compassion with her indomitable courage. Before I hand over the baton of the FLO’s Amritsar chapter to the new chairperson, I wanted to welcome Dr Gupta to our organisation,” said Aarushi Verma, the outgoing chairperson of the FL, Amritsar chapter.

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).
