Muktsar, August 8

The health authorities today directed a psychiatrist, who is posted at the Civil Hospital here, to perform duty at the Malout Civil Hospital for two days a week.

The directions came after The Tribune, in its August 7 edition, reported that the Malout de-addiction centre, which is part of the Civil Hospital, has been non-operational.

Dr Ranju Singla, Chief Medical Officer (CMO), Muktsar, said: “Dr Rahul Jindal, a psychiatrist who is posted at the Muktsar Civil Hospital, has been asked to perform duty at the Malout Civil Hospital every Tuesday and Friday.”

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).
