To support the health of its sanitation workers and staff, the Municipal Corporation today began a month-long camp under the “Safai Apnao, Bimaari Bhagao” campaign.

The health camp is being organised in collaboration with the TCI Foundation and Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital and Research Centre.

Mayor Kuldeep Kumar inaugurated the mega cancer screening camp at the Community Centre, Sector 11, in the presence of area councillor Sachin Galav, Joint Commissioner Gurinder Singh Sodhi, MOH Inderdeep Kaur, other senior officers and employees of the civic body.

“Cancer cases are increasing in our society, making early detection and timely treatment essential. This camp provides an opportunity to our sanitation workers and employees to get screened for cancer. The camp will promote healthy lifestyle by raising awareness on the early signs and symptoms of cancer,” said the Mayor.

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).
