Bathinda, May 31

A private hospital in Bathinda has been found guilty of violating the orders issued by the Deputy Commissioner. The hospital admitted 33 patients despite being allotted only seven beds for level-3 patients.

As per the orders issued by DC B Srinivasan, Global Hospital has been completely barred from admitting new patients of Covid from June 1 to July 31, in view of the shortcomings found during an inspection conducted by the civil surgeon.

He said the admitted patients would be treated by the management. The civil surgeon found shortcomings at Global Hospital while reviewing the complaints of overcharging. — TNS

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).
