Chandigarh, September 23

The Punjab State Human Rights Commission took a suo motu cognisance of the incident of a 30-year-old woman, who died while undergoing a minor operation for tooth extraction at Panjab University’s Dr Harvansh Singh Judge Institute of Dental Sciences and Hospital, here, recently.

Taking suo motu cognisance of the matter, Justice Nirmaljit Kaur, member of the Punjab State Human Rights Commission, has sought a report from the SSP, Chandigarh, who may look into the complaint and submit the report before the next date of hearing on December 1.

Police officials said the patient’s body was shifted to the Government Multi-Speciality Hospital, Sector 16, for post-mortem examination.

The matter will be put up before the SSP, Chandigarh, who may look into the complaint and submit his report before the next date of hearing.

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).
