Chandigarh reported 15 new Covid-19 cases over the last 24 hours, a health bulletin from the union territory’s administration—the lowest infection numbers the UT has reported since March.

The UT also reported no new deaths. Chandigarh’s active cases now stand at 203, with a positivity rate of 1.54 per cent over the last seven days.

Some 1,363 samples were tested over the last 24 hours, the bulletin showed. The UT also recorded 37 recoveries.

The bulletin also showed that 4,21,566 have so far been given at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine and 82,539 people are fully vaccinated in the city.

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).
