Chandigarh reported eight new Covid-19 cases over the last 24 hours, a health bulletin said on Sunday.

The union territory’s active cases now stand at 96, the bulletin said. Some 1,663 samples were tested over the last 24 hours, the bulletin showed.

The UT reported no new deaths. The UT’s fatality count since the pandemic began last year stands at 809.

Meanwhile, the bulletin showed 7,09,180 people over 18 have received at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine so far. Of that number, 1,18,029 are fully vaccinated.

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).
