Mohali, February 26

An 18-year-old maid died after falling off the balcony of a house on the sixth floor of the building at a housing society in mysterious circumstances last night.

The deceased has been identified as Jyoti of Jagatpura. She was rushed to the Sohana hospital where doctors declared her brought dead.

The deceased’s father, Ramgopal, a gardener, said he had two daughters and two sons who were employed at different places. Jyoti lived and work at the house in the society. The railing was high enough and it was difficult to believe that his daughter could fall off the balcony while drying clothes on a clothes line. He demanded a thorough investigation into the matter.

At night, Jagatpura residents reached the Sohana hospital and created a ruckus. —

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).
