Additional Chief Secretary (Health) Sudhir Rajpal has directed officers of the Special Task Force (STF) to make reverse tracking in abortion cases more effectively so that strict action can be taken against those involved in illegal abortions. He expressed satisfaction over the improvement in sex ratio from 905 to 913 as of October 31, 2025, compared to the previous year.

Rajpal was presiding over a meeting of the STF constituted to curb illegal abortions.

The Additional Chief Secretary said FIRs must be registered against those involved in illegal abortions during reverse tracking and sufficient evidence should be gathered to ensure the culprits are convicted.

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).
