Amritsar, July 11

After arranging free accommodation and langar for people affected by flood, the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) today dispatched three ambulances to the affected areas — Sri Anandpur Sahib, Patiala and Mohali.

SGPC chief Harjinder Singh Dhami flagged off the fully equipped vehicles with medical teams from Sri Guru Ramdas Charitable Hospital in Vallah. Dhami said due to the natural calamity, people were in great trouble due to flooding in many areas.

“Sri Guru Ramdas Charitable Hospital Vallah has offered its team, a doctor and supporting staff, besides requisite medicines free of cost to victims,” he said.

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).
