Phagwara, May 27

Shivani (28), a resident of Salim Tabri in Ludhiana, gave birth to a baby in a bus near Phagwara on Friday morning. Shivani was heading to Ludhiana from Jalandhar when she experienced labour pain.

One of the passengers who turned out to be a medic helped the woman deliver the baby.

Later, the driver took the vehicle to the bus stand and informed 108, which took the woman and baby to the local civil hospital.

Senior Medical Officer Dr Kamal Kishore said, “Both mother and baby are stable and safe.”

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).
