Even as medical scientists devise ways and means to combat Covid-19, residents of the region are turning to the age-old practice of havan to eliminate the dreaded coronavirus and purify the atmosphere.

Havans are being performed in numerous villages of Haryana to ward off the disease-causing micro-organisms. After performing the havan, the vessels containing the burning havan-samagri are passed through the villages on tractor-trailers to cleanse the environment.

“Community havans have been going on in the villages with participation of the residents. Now, we are organising havans in the urban areas as well,” says Rampal Arya, the president of Arya Pratinidhi Sabha, Haryana. He asserts that havan is a scientific method to eliminate the disease-causing micro-organisms in the environment and can eradicate coronavirus as well. — 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).
