Chandigarh, April 10

A 40-year-old man in Chandigarh tested positive for coronavirus on Friday.

The man resides in Sector 37.

The city reported its first case on March 18, followed by four more cases on the next day (March 19).

The sixth case was reported on March 21 and the seventh case came on March 22.

The eighth case was reported on March 26. Seven more cases were reported on March 30, followed by one case on April 1 and one on April 2.

There are 19 confirmed cases in Chandigarh, of which 7 have recovered and 12 are still active in hospital.

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).
