Jind (Haryana), June 9

Two labourers from Bihar were killed and 17 others injured after their bus skidded off the road and crashed into the trees in Haryana’s Narwana town on Wednesday, police said.

The bus with over 70 farm labourers from Bihar’s Supaul district lost control and turned turtle after its driver fell asleep near Balerkha village in Narwana on the Jind-Patiala highway, Station House Officer (SHO) Raj Kumar said.

Around 10 labourers, including the deceased, were sitting on the roof of the bus.

The injured were being treated at a nearby hospital, the SHO said. PTI

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).
