Gurugram, July 27

A woman driver had a miraculous escape when her compact SUV caught fire near Rajiv Chowk in Gurugram today morning.

Seeing smoke rising from the engine, she got out timely from her Ford EcoSport before it burst into flames.

On receiving information, the fire brigade team reached the spot and doused the fire but the front part of the vehicle was completely destroyed.

According to fire brigade officials, at around 11 am, they received information that a vehicle had caught fire near Rajiv Chowk. Within minutes, the fire brigade team reached the spot and started extinguishing the fire.

The SUV owner, who was going towards Sohna, said that on seeing the smoke rising, she immediately stopped the vehicle near Tau Devi Lal Stadium and soon after it caught fire.

According to fire brigade officials, the fire was reportedly caused due to short circuit.

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).
