Amritsar, October 15

The Punjab State Pharmacy Officers’ Association submitted memorandums to MLAs Jasbir Singh Sandhu and Dr Inderbir Singh Nijjer here on Sunday. The association urged the government to roll back its decision of transferring regular employees from the Aam Aadmi Clinics.

Association president Ashok Kumar Sharma said the government had earlier converted the primary health centres (PHCs) and other health institutions to Aam Aadmi Clinics and now it was transferring regular employees posted there. “The government has plans to hire employees on a contract basis for these clinics, which is against the interest of the employees,” he further added.

The association also demanded filling of vacant posts through regular employment.

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).
