Three judges of the local judicial complex and 15 members from the staff have been home quarantined and three courtrooms of the district judicial complex have been closed after two undertrials lodged in the district jail were found Covid positive on Tuesday.

The undertrials, aged 22-year-old and 49-year-old, hailing from Sector- 16 here and Delhi respectively had been produced in these courtrooms recently. The courtrooms of CJM Sandeep Chauhan, JMIC Kimmi Singla and JMIC Sakshi Saini have been closed. “All the staff of these courts, including the judicial officers, has been quarantined for 14 days,” said an official of the health department.

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).
