Chandigarh reported 14 new cases but no fatalities in the last 24 hours, a health bulletin said on Monday.

Chandigarh now has 100 active cases with a positivity rate of over the last seven days, the bulletin said.

Chandigarh’s been recording a steady rise in Covid cases since last week—the UT’s recorded 58 new cases since Thursday. It also recorded its first death in two months on Sunday.

Chandigarh’s fatality count since the pandemic began almost two years ago stands at 1,078.

The bulletin showed 1,084 samples were tested in the last 24 hours.

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).
