Mohali, July 3

Urging the people to join hands to curb the spread of the Covid pandemic, the Civil Surgeon, Dr Manjit Singh, said: “Mission Fateh launched by the Punjab Government against this deadly disease is the people’s own mission and its success mainly requires frequent hand washing, social distancing and use of a face mask”.

Dr Manjit was addressing a public contact programme under Mission Fateh at a dispensary in Sector 71 here today. He said people of Punjab were aware of this disease. As a result, it was in a better position than other states in terms of coronavirus cases and deaths.

Calling for an extra vigil and strict compliance with all protocols, Dr Manjit asked villagers to follow all health advisories and norms diligently. — TNS

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).
