Patiala, December 15

A day after a former Auxiliary Nurse Midwife (ANM) was nabbed for running an illegal gender determination centre, the suspect, Meena, was produced in court and sent on police remand for a day.

Patiala Civil Surgeon Raminder Kaur said, Meena was sacked from her previous job due to similar activities. “It is the police’s duty to find out for how long Meena had been running this illegal clinic. The police should also investigate as to where she dumped the foetuses after performing illegal abortions,” said Dr Raminder.

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).
