Chandigarh, October 11

With 85 new cases of Covid-19, the UT tally today reached 13,162. The city also reported one death due to the infection.

A 34-year-old man from Sector 50, who was also suffering from acute respiratory distress syndrome, died at the Government Medical College and Hospital in Sector 32 here.

With 125 single-day recoveries, the number of cured patients in the city has reached 11,787, thus increasing the recovery rate to 89.5 per cent. A total of 1,184 patients are still infected with Covid-19, while 191 have succumbed to the disease.

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).
