Noida, July 29

A factory supervisor died in an accident as the elevator he was using fell down two floors after its cable snapped, the police said on Saturday.

A police official said, “The incident took place on Thursday evening. The victim, Kamlesh (29), was taken to a nearby hospital by his colleagues but he succumbed to the injuries during treatment.” Kamlesh hailed from Jaunpur district and worked as a supervisor in a textile factory located in Sector 63 here, the official added.

According to the police, the elevator was meant to carry only clothes and had a weighing capacity of 15 kg. The supervisor allegedly broke the rules regarding non-use of the elevator by workers.

The body was handed over to the deceased’s family after an autopsy.

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).
