Chandigarh, June 18

Chandigarh Administration said on Friday there would be no lockdowns this Sunday—a development that comes days after the union territory allowed shops to open up for longer hours as the city continues to report a significant decline in infections.

The UT administration said on Sunday that Administrator VP Singh Badnore has decided to call off a general lockdown on Sunday as previously announced but night curfew will remain in force from 10:30 pm to 5 am.

Sukhna Lake will remain open to the public only from 5 am-9 am, and 6 pm-8 pm.

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).
