Panchkula, June 24

A five-year-old boy was killed when a speeding car hit the tricycle he was travelling on near Dolphin Chowk here on Wednesday. The incident took place when the deceased, Abhay, along with his physically challenged father, was going towards a petrol pump to fetch water. The car rammed into their tricycle from the rear side and sped away. Both fell on the ground after the collision.

The victim’s father, Gopal, who lives in a jhuggi in Bhainsa Tibba, MDC, Sector 4, told the police that they were taken to the Civil Hospital for treatment in another car. Doctors at the hospital declared Abhay dead. A case was registered. — 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).
