An ambulance driver died when the vehicle, which was coming from Jalandhar after dropping a Delhi-based Covid patient, met with an accident near Mandi Gobindgarh.

The deceased was identified as Kishor Chand (45). He was working with JK Ambulance Service Delhi. Sources said the ambulance was coming from the Jalandhar side when it collided with a water tanker on the GT Road near Mandi Gobindgarh.

As hospitals in Delhi are overflowing with patients, the affluent among them are making a beeline for beds at Punjab hospitals. The regular flow of ambulances bringing patients from other states can be seen on the GT Road. — TNS

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).
