Chandigarh, June 30

Punjab government said on Tuesday that educational institutions, coaching institutions, gymnasiums and cinema halls in Punjab will remain closed till July 31.

The government issued new Unlock 2 guidelines on Tuesday along the lines of the guidelines the central government issued on Monday.

Following the central guidelines, the state government said night curfew will remain in force from 10 pm to 5 am.

The development comes on a day when Punjab reported 150 new coronavirus cases and six new deaths.

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).
