Chandigarh, June 7

General Officer Commanding, Ram Division, Maj Gen SK Sharma, visited the unique Field Hospital in Delhi that has been set up under the aegis of Western Command for treatment of l Covid-19 patients.

He interacted with ex-servicemen as well as the medical staff and health care workers to boost their morale and distributed fruits to them.

The hospital had anticipated the second wave of the pandemic and trained its medical officers and paramedics well in advance to tackle mild and severe Covid cases.

They were also trained to handle sophisticated medical equipment, including ventilators.

The hospital also established a veteran cell, dedicated Covid helpline and mobile medical teams. Hospital teams provided home care for very critical Covid infected ex-servicemen and their families.

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).
