New Delhi, November 1

Lady Hardinge Medical College and Hospital on Tuesday ended the system of hiring bouncers and marshals, previously meant for ensuring security and doctors’ safety.

An order issued by deputy director administration VK Sharma said the services of “marshals and bouncers are temporarily suspended and therefore their services be withdrawn with immediate effect.”

Bouncers and marshals were previously hired to maintain hospital and staff security.

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).
