Retired sessions Judge RK Kashyap (73) from Panchkula, whose body was found on railway tracks near Shahabad, Kurukshetra, left a note stating he alone was responsible for his death, the Government Railway Police (GRP) confirmed today.

Kashyap, a resident of Sector 27, Panchkula, went missing on Thursday morning after leaving for his regular walk at the herbal park in Sector 26. His son Nipun Kashyap lodged a missing person complaint at the Chandimandir police station when he failed to return home. The GRP has initiated inquest proceedings in the incident.

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).
