UNA, MAY 8

Blood donation and multi-specialty health camps were organised at a fair — conducted on the occasion of the World Red Cross Day — in Gagret here. Physically challenged persons were examined by specialists at the fair.

Deputy Commissioner Raghav Sharma, who is the chairman of the Una district Red Cross Society, presided over the camp, while Gagret MLA Rajesh Thakur was also present on the occasion.

A total of 76 units of blood were donated at the camp while 523 patients were examined by specialists of the Ayush Department. As many as 63 physically-challenged persons were examined and 40 were issued physical disability certificates on the spot.

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).
