Chandigarh reports two deaths and 204 fresh COVID-19 cases on Tuesday, taking the Union Territory’s death toll to 57.

The city’s coronavirus tally stands at 4,550.

About 2,551 patients have been cured of the deadly disease in the city.

COVID-19 deaths:

A 76-year-old man—a resident of Ramdarbar, Industrial Area Phase 1—succumbed to the deadly disease. He also had Hypertension, Coronary Artery Disease, Diabetes, and Chronic Kidney Disease tested COVID positive, expired at GMCH-32.

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).
