To equip the 100-bed Civil Hospital here with a ventilator, a BJP activist has taken the initiative.

Vijay Luxmi Bhadoo, who was the state president of the BJP Mahila Morcha, on Friday handed over a cheque for

Rs1 lakh to SDM Jaspal Singh Brar. “The money should be used to buy a ventilator for the Civil Hospital. I expect more people will come forward to arrange equipment for the hospital. Many NGOs are doing a yeoman’s service by helping hundreds of needy people,” she said. — OC

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).
