The district witnessed its first death due to Covid-19 this year, taking the overall toll to 422. The deceased is an 82-year-old man from Bhowanli village in the Raipur Rani area of the district. The patient had co-morbidities, including high blood pressure, osteoarthritis and meningioma (a primary central nervous system tumour).

Meanwhile, 32 fresh cases of Covid were reported from the district on Saturday, taking the overall tally to 64,402.

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).
