A woman died after she allegedly jumped from the top floor of Gurudwara Baba Atal Rai located near Golden Temple Complex here on Thursday morning.

Vishaljit Singh, Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police, said she had come alone to the shrine, adding that efforts were being made to identify her.

Her body has been kept at Civi Hospital mortuary. The public timing to visit the seven-storey shrine was from 7.30am to 10.30am. The woman jumped from around 9.30 am.

“The primary motive is clearly to commit suicide. During the CCTV cameras analysis, she was found alone," said ADCP.

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).
