In the biggest single-day spike, Panchkula reported 20 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday.

The patients belong to various residential sectors, Kalka, Raipur Rani and Pinjore.

The infected patients have been moved to an isolation ward of the Civil Hospital in Sector 6. Efforts are being made to trace their contacts to curb the infection.

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).
