Chandigarh, August 13

Chandigarh reported seven new Covid-19 cases over the last 24 hours, a bulletin from the administration said.

Active cases now stand at 42, with an average positivity rate of 0.31 per cent over seven days. The UT’s fatality count is 811. The bulletin said 2,039 samples have been tested over the last 24 hours.

The UT recorded 10 recoveries.

Meanwhile, 7,29,822 people have received at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine. Of that number, 2,38,107 are fully vaccinated, the bulletin showed.

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).
