ASI Bhupinder Singh of Chandigarh Police, who has been sensitising people about the pandemic, has tested coronavirus positive.

He has been admitted to Government Multi Specialty Hospital, Sector 16.

Sources said Bhupinder showed mild symptoms following which his test was conducted on August 3.

Bhupinder had carried out an intensive awareness campaign to sensitise people about coronavirus in the city.

He has also written a song on coronavirus and had sung it for The Tribune.

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).
