Chandigarh, January 12

Former Punjab chief minister Capt Amarinder Singh on Wednesday tested positive for Covid.

“I have tested positive for #Covid with mild symptoms. Have isolated myself and request all those who came in contact with me to get themselves tested,” Capt wrote on twitter.

The 79-year-old leader had recently formed the Punjab Lok Congress. A few days ago, Singh’s wife and Congress MP from Patiala, Preneet Kaur had tested positive for the infection.

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).
