Patna, March 24

More than 100 school students have been admitted to Patna Medical College and Hospital when they complained of uneasiness after consuming lunch during Bihar Diwas celebrations.

The conditions of many are stated to be critical, said hospital sources.

Bihar Diwas celebrations were held on Tuesday (March 22) and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar attended the event in Patna’s Gandhi Maidan. School students from across the state were invited for the event.

District Magistrate and civil surgeon of Patna has refused to comment on the matter.

The Bihar Diwas was celebrated after three years due to the pandemic. IANS

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).
