Mohali, July 29

A 20-year-old BTech student of a private college in Janjheri died while his friend was injured after a speeding truck hit their bike near Airport Chowk on Saturday night.

Victim Ashish Manhas, a native of Hoshiarpur and currently living in Santemajra, was going on a bike to Zirakpur when a speeding truck crushed his head. Pillion rider Harsindra was injured in the accident and admitted to the hospital.

The police said the truck driver was identified as Mandi resident Suresh Kumar.

On the complaint of victim’s father Onkar Singh, a case of negligent driving has been registered against the truck driver at the Sohana police station.

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).
