Fatehgarh Sahib, April 28

The administration has decided to shut Sirhind Fruit and Vegetable Market for a week after a sudden increase in Covid-19 positive patients in Rajpura.

A large number of vegetable vendors from Rajpura, Mandi Gobindgarh and other areas had started coming to purchase vegetables from the town.

As Rajpura has become a hotspot, the administration does not want to take any chance and decided to close the Sabzi Mandi, said Gulshan Rai Bobby, chairman, Sirhind Market Committee. — OC

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).
