He said he was returning to his shop in Zirakpur after dropping his family at Rajpura. He said after witnessing smoke coming out of the car engine, he parked the vehicle on a roadside and soon, the engine and the dashboard were engulfed in fire. He said he managed to come out of the car after breaking open the left door. He said that he was carrying a bag containing Rs32,000 that was burnt in the fire. He said vehicles’ documents, including the drivers’ licence, were also burnt. — 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).
