Chandigarh, May 29

Chandigarh reported 164 new Covid-19 cases—the lowest the union territory has seen in over a month—in the last 24 hours, a new health bulletin by the UT’s health department showed on Saturday.

Five more deaths took the fatality count to 740, the bulletin said. Some 3,076 samples were tested over the last 24 hours.

Chandigarh now has 2,466 active cases, the bulletin said.

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).
