Zirakpur, March 16

A 28-year-old man ended his life by allegedly jumping off the 12th floor of a building at a housing society here today.

The victim, Hiraj Patel, an employee of a private firm in Mohali, had lost his job 15 days ago and was in depression for the past some days. Around 9 am today, Hiraj allegedly jumped off the balcony of his flat in Motiaz Royal Citi and fell on his SUV parked on the premises.

The police said he was rushed to a private hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.

No suicide note was found on him. At the time of the incident, his wife, mother and mother-in-law were present in the house. — TNS

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).
