Chandigarh, July 13

Chandigarh on Tuesday reported only two new cases of Covid-19, the lowest since the pandemic began as the total number of cases in the city has reached 61,844.

The death toll in the UT remains at 809.

As many as 1,306 samples were tested in the last 24 hours as the positivity rate was recorded at 0.15 per cent.

The number of cured patients till date is 60,958.

The number of active cases has fallen down to 77 as a total of 19 patients were discharged including persons from home isolation who have completed 10 days and are asymptomatic, as per Ministry of Health guidelines.

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).
