Ambala, June 5

A man was killed after a speeding vehicle hit and dragged him on the NH44 here on Sunday night.

The deceased was identified as Nitish Kumar, a resident Bihar.

Anjesh Kumar, who belongs to Bihar and is presently living in Ambala, stated that he, along with his brother Nitish Kumar, was waiting for a vehicle near the Mohra flyover when a speeding vehicle, bearing a Chandigarh registration number and going toward Ambala Cantonment, hit Nitish and dragged him to some distance. He died on the spot while the driver of the vehicle sped away.

A case under Sections 279 and 304-A of the IPC was registered at the Parao police station in Ambala on Monday.

Investigating Officer Mahavir Singh said the body was handed over to the victim’s family after post-mortem. Efforts were on to trace the vehicle involved in the hit-and-run, he added.

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).
