Karnal, April 10

A 48-year-old woman of Nilokheri has died of Covid in Karnal. It is a death here after a gap of over six months.

Civil Surgeon Dr Yogesh Sharma confirmed her death and said she was suffering from diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease and heart ailment. She was taken to a private hospital in Karnal on the night of Sunday and Monday, where she tested Covid positive by rapid antigen testing. She was referred to the Kalpana Chawla Government Medical College, where she was declared brought dead.

“She had no history of fever and other Covid-like symptoms. Since she tested positive, we have considered it as Covid death,” Dr Sharma added.

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).
