London, February 5

Britain’s King Charles has been diagnosed with a form of cancer and will postpone public-facing duties, Buckingham Palace mentioned in a statement issued on Monday.

Charles, 75, had spent three nights in hospital last month after undergoing a corrective procedure for an enlarged prostate, when a separate issue of concern was noted. The palace said that tests had identified a form of cancer. The palace did not give any details about Charles’ cancer but a royal source said that it was not prostate. “Throughout this (recovery) period, His Majesty will continue to undertake State business and official paperwork as usual,” the palace stated. — Reuters

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).
