Chamba, January 12

Abdul Ghani (64) of Chamba has donated blood 203 times to date. Ghani said he had been donating blood on important occasions to the blood bank at the blood donation ward of the local government regional hospital, now a medical college and hospital, since the age of 18.

“I donate blood as it can save someone’s life. I will continue to do so till I am alive,” he said.

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).
