Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday reviewed COVID status and response as daily cases fell to 4,575 indicating a retreat of the pandemic.

Home Minister Amit Shah, Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya, Principal Secretary to PM PK Mishra, Adviser to PM Amit Khare, Member Health NITI Aayog and Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan attended.

The PM took a detailed review of the pandemic, vaccination status and the need for future precautions and stressed the importance of resuming normal activities while keeping COVID appropriate behaviour in mind.

India has so far administered 179.51 crore doses, vaccinating over 92 pc of adults with one dose over 75 pc with both doses.

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).
