Palampur, December 30

Shanta Kumar and his son Vikram Sharma, who had tested positive for Covid-19, were shifted to Fortis Hospital, Mohali, today.

The 86-year-old leader’s wife Santosh Shelja had succumbed to the virus at Tanda Medical College yesterday.

Shanta Kumar reportedly developed trouble last night after which he was advised to move to a bigger medial intuition. A team of doctors from a private hospital at Palampur accompanied them to Mohali.

Shanta Kumar is reportedly under shock due to the sudden death of his wife. His condition is stated to be stable.

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).
