Actress Lara Dutta, who was last seen in the streaming show Hiccups and Hookups, feels women in India don’t have proper access to healthcare facilities, especially reproductive health. The actress recently attended an event organised to raise awareness around menopause.

She said: “Being on stage and listening to the panel of doctors has been an eye-opener. Women’s health and wellness, especially menopause and reproductive health, is barely discussed in the way that it should. In our country, unfortunately, the majority of women don’t even have access to proper physical and medical healthcare facilities.” — IANS

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).
