Ophthalmic surgeons, led by Dr Puja Gupta, implanted intraocular lenses in 350 patients for restoring their vision. These patients were identified during an eye check-up camp held recently at Bajrang Akhara here.

The implantations were conducted at a newly set-up eye operation theatre which was inaugurated by the chairman of Shreyans Industries Limited, Rajnish Oswal.

D K Goyal, convener of the project, said 350 patients were identified for the procedure after screening about 800 persons during the 47th five-day eye camp that was conducted in memory of the former chairman of the firm. The event was inaugurated by Amargarh legislator Jaswant Singh Gajjan Majra, while Arshia Oswal, AGM of the firm, was the chief guest.

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).
