Chandigarh, May 11

A 17-year-old boy reportedly committed suicide by hanging at his house in Sector 41 here today. No suicide note was found from the spot.

The victim, a native of Himachal Pradesh, was staying here with his two elder sisters. He was taking coaching for non-medical from a private institute. “His sisters had an appointment with a doctor. On returning home, they found the door bolted from inside,” said a cop.

The victim’s body was later found hanging inside the house, following which the police were informed. — TNS

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).
