Chandigarh, February 10

UT Health Department has now decided to make all walk-in OPDs fully functional in Government Multispecialty Hospital Sector- 16. The decision will be a massive relief for people who were waiting for the move.

During Covid pandemic, only few OPDs were functional, as more focus of the hospital authorities was on treating people with Covid related complications. Now from 14 February, people with health ailments other than Covid could also be treated in full capacity.

Health Authorities also made eSanjeevani and teleconsultation facilities available, where patients can interact with doctors from home. The decision has been taken to contain Covid spread.

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).
