The state government has announced revised winter outpatient department (OPD) timings for all government hospitals and dispensaries across the state, aiming to streamline healthcare services during cold weather.

According to an official notification, the new timings will be effective from October 16 to April 15.

During this period, outpatient department services at all government hospitals and dispensaries will be available from 9 am to 3 pm.

The government notification says the emergency services will continue to operate round the clock, ensuring uninterrupted medical care in critical cases.

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).
