New Delhi, August 23

A 15-year-old boy drowned in a waterlogged road near The British School in central Delhi’s Chanakyapuri following heavy rain on Friday.

The incident took place when the victim, Sourabh, who lived with his family at Vivekanand Camp in the vicinity, was playing in the rain with friends. He accidentally ventured into deep waters and drowned. His friends alerted his family members, who pulled him out and took him to a hospital, where he was declared dead.

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).
