Chandigarh, October 31

A B.Com student who allegedly made a suicide bid by jumping into Sukhna Lake was saved by two good samaritans on Monday evening.

The youth, a resident of Mullanpur, jumped into the lake around 6 pm.

Mayank Sharma, a software engineer, and Major Jitesh Chadha, who were jogging at the lake, heard the youth cry for help. Both jumped into the lake and safely brought him out of water.

Meanwhile, the police was informed about the incident who rushed the victim to hospital.

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).
