Chandigarh, October 12

A 20-year-old youth was electrocuted on the road separating Sector 56 and Maloya yesterday. He has been identified as Mandeep (20), a resident of Sector 56. He was pursuing ITI from an institute in Mohali.

Sources said Mandeep, along with his friends, was going to Maloya to play football. Mandeep was electrocuted when he touched a light pole while crossing the road.

He was rushed to the Civil Hospital, Phase VI, Mohali, from where he was referred to the PGI. He died in the wee hours today. The police have launched investigation into the matter.

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).
