Police have registered an FIR against an unidentified person in connection with the death of a 30-year-old man who fell into a borewell at a Delhi Jal Board sewage treatment plant here, officials said on Monday.

The victim is yet to be identified, they said.

“An FIR under Section IPC 304-A (causing death by negligence) has been registered at the Vikaspuri police station. Further investigation will be taken up,” Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) Vichitra Veer said.

The body of the man was pulled out of the 40-foot-deep borewell after a 12-hour-long operation on Sunday, police said.

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).
