A Jagadhri surgeon and social worker, Dr Anil Aggarwal, was awarded gold medal by Governor Bandaru Dattatreya at a function held in Panchkula on Wednesday.

Dr Aggarwal, through the Red Cross Society, has rendered his services to society by organising free medical and blood donation camps. He has also performed more than 500 surgeries for free. He has been awarded 12 times by various Governors, and twice each by Union Health Ministers and Chief Ministers. He has also been honoured by the Director of PGI, Chandigarh, four times for performing successful extraordinary surgeries.

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).
