Mohali, June 20

After several complaints by the patients and their attendants about the unavailability of doctors in the maternity ward of the Kharar Civil Hospital at night, the administration officials today sought a report from the senior doctors.

Sub-Divisional Magistrate Gurmandar Singh visited the hospital on Tuesday night to take stock of the situation. Patients and their attendants highlighted his shortcomings. The hospital administration has been asked to prepare a roster in such a way that a gynaecologist is available round-the-clock. The senior medical officer would submit a report in this regard, he said.

Officials said a gynaecologist is available until 2 pm; however, in case of an emergency, a doctor comes from Chandigarh at night to attend to the patient.

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).
