Ambala, May 11

The district administration seized 33 empty oxygen cylinders from a factory and handed over them to the health department for utilisation in Ambala on Tuesday.

Deputy Commissioner Ashok Sharma and other senior officials found the cylinders in the Mahesh Nagar area while inspecting the macro and micro containment zones in Boh and Babyal villages. The factory representative failed to give any satisfactory reply, following which the DC directed officials to seize the cylinders. He also directed the officials to initiate appropriate action in this matter.

Sharma said, “We appeal to all factory owners and other institutions to hand over their oxygen cylinders to the administration so that the same could be used in providing relief to Covid patients.”

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).
