A man died on the spot in Kot Muhammad Khan on Friday evening when his licensed revolver went off accidentally. The deceased has been identified as Jagmohan Singh (41), who after his superannuation from the Army was working in the sub-division office in Naushehra Pannuan as a clerk.

Ranjit Kaur, wife of the deceased, who works as head teacher at Government Elementary School, Kahlwan, said in her statement to the Goindwal Sahib police that her husband Jagmohan Singh was cleaning his licensed revolver when it went off accidentally and the bullet hit him in the head.

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).
