The UT police headquarters in Sector 9 was sealed for two days on Monday to carry out sanitation after employees of the UT Education department tested positive for coronavirus.

SP Headquarters Manoj Kumar Meena said that since the employees of the police department and education department share the same canteen, which is located in the police headquarters, there was a need to sanitise the building as a precautionary measure.

“The building is closed for two days Monday and Tuesday,” he added.

The staff has been asked to work from home, however, the police control room will work normally.

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).
