Palampur, December 15

The Vivekananda Medical Research Trust (VMRT) today set up a cardiac cath lab and digital radiography facilities at VMRT Hospital, Palampur.

Shanta Kumar, chairman of the VMRT, inaugurated the lab. Shanta said the commissioning of the lab and the digital radiography facility would raise the standards of medical treatment here where health services were negligible.

He said the cath lab was a necessity as people had to go to Chandigarh and Delhi for heart ailments. The VMRT had installed the latest version of the cath lab that facilitates diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases with minimal invasive tests and procedures. It would be of great help to the common man, he added. — OC

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).
