Chandigarh, June 6

Except in Faridabad and Gurugram, places of worship, restaurants and shopping malls will reopen across Haryana on Monday. Deputy CM Dushyant Chautala made the announcement today after a meeting with CM Manohar Lal Khattar and state Home Minister Anil Vij.

Gurugram with 1,692 positive cases and Faridabad with 690 patients comprise 66.3 per cent of the total cases in the state (3,952). Dushyant told mediapersons restaurants/eateries had been allowed to open across the state but with 50 per cent capacity. The district administrations concerned would issue orders in this regard.

He said temples, churches, gurdwaras and mosques would have to maintain social distancing. “Religious congregations like jagrans, namaaz and Sunday Mass are prohibited,” he said. — TNS

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).
