Mohali, January 6

A migrant labour and a pet dog died in their sleep after they inhaled toxic fumes from a genset in an under-construction house in Sahauran village near Kharar on Thursday night.

Victim Sachin, a native of Bahapur, UP, was working as a labourer in the house and used to stay there.

At night, he slept in a room where the genset was working. As the room had no ventilation, he died during sleep. The pet dog of the houseowner in the room also died.

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).
