Chandigarh on Thursday reported 19 new cases of Covid-19 to take the total tally to 61,542.

There are 247 active cases of the virus in the city.

A total of 42 patients were discharged in the last 24 hours, including persons from home isolation who have completed 10 days and are asymptomatic, as per Ministry of Health guidelines, taking the total number of recovered people to 60,488.

No new deaths were reported in the city on Thursday while the death toll is 807.

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).
