Chandigarh MP Kirron Kher is under treatment for multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, her husband Anupam Kher said on Thursday.

In a public message on Twitter, actor Kher said “Just so rumours do not get the better of a situation, Sikander and I would like to inform everyone that Kirron has been diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer. She’s currently undergoing treatment and we are sure she will come out of this stronger that before. We are blessed that she is being looked after by a phenomenal team of doctors. She has always been a fighter and takes things head on.”

Kher said his wife is well on the road to recovery.

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).
