Fazilka, June 25

Reena Rani (35), a Jaunpur, Uttar Pradesh, resident presently residing in Ludhiana, was over cloud nine as 80 per cent of her vision was restored after free corneal transplant (keratoplasty) at Punarjot Eye Bank Society in Ludhiana.

Rani participated in an annual conference on eye donation, organised by WHO-recognised Punarjot Eye Bank Society, an NGO working towards eradicating corneal blindness.

Health experts from Social Welfare Society, an NGO in Fazilka, along with NGO president Shashi Kant, eye donation project chairman Ravi Juneja, participated in the programme at Ludhiana.

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).
