Chandigarh, June 28

A toddler was among Chandigarh’s two new coronavirus cases on Sunday, officials said.

A two-and-a-half year old boy from Sector 30-B tested positive on Sunday. He is believed to have got the infection from a 76-year-old woman who tested positive on June 26.

The second patient is a 31-year-old male returned from Kazakhstan on June 21 and has been quarantined since at the Hotel Lemon Tree.

The developments take Chandigarh’s count to 431. The UT now has 89 active COVID-19 cases and six deaths.

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).
