Chandigarh: To effectively address and resolve medical and stress-related issues during lockdown, the state government has launched a helpline 18001804104 for citizens to connect with a network of senior doctors over teleconference and get medical advice on Covid-19 and other related concerns. Ravi Bhagat, a member of Covid control room team, said a panel of expert doctors had been trained about the platform, its protocol and functionalities to counsel anxiety-related issues in the wake of the lockdown.

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).
