Chandigarh: On behalf of PGIMER, I am extremely thankful to our Armed Forces for appreciating and commending the efforts of health care workers, the front line warriors battling the global pandemic of Covid-19.

Lauding the initiatives of the others in this fight against Covid-19, the Director, PGIMER further said, “The other front line warriors, our police personnel, also deserve our whole-hearted admiration for their commitment and tireless work. Even the role played by media in these challenging times is praiseworthy.

Prof. Vipin Koushal, in-charge Covid Hospital, while interacting with media on the occasion, said, “Today, our Armed Forces lost five of their distinguished officers and soldiers in Handwara (J&K) who showed exemplary courage in their fight against the terrorism and made supreme sacrifice. It is extremely painful and disturbing.

Despite that loss, the Armed Forces expressed their gratitude to front line corona warriors. It is gratifying but at the same time, a lesson to be learnt in fortitude and service to the nation from our Armed Forces.”
