Mohali, February 15

A total of 155 dentures were provided to patients during a dental fortnight observed at the Civil Hospital in Phase 6 and other subdivisional hospitals at Dera Bassi and Kharar besides community health centres at Kurali and Banur.

Mohali Civil Surgeon Dr Manjit Singh said patients and other people were made aware of the importance of dental care during the fortnight, which concluded on February 14.

People were provided free dental check-up and patients were given treatment for various ailments, including tooth decay, cavities, gum diseases, darkened tooth, etc.

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).
