The School Education Department has directed teaching and non-teaching staff to get at least the first dose of vaccine and produce a certificate by August 13, but the Health Department has not been able to arrange required doses.

Only 250 doses were provided to a team that organised a camp here, but scores of people, most of them related to the education department, thronged the complex, flouting the Covid protocols.

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).
