Chandigarh, September 1

Close on the heels of the RG Kar hospital incident, a nurse was allegedly molested by a patient at a hospital in Birbhum in West Bengal on Saturday night.

According to media reports, she was administering drip to the patient when he allegedly touched her inappropriately and also used abusive language.

Police have arrested the accused and a probe is on.

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).
