Kurukshetra, August 28

A four-year-old boy died after he was bitten by a snake in Kurukshetra.

The victim has been identified as Karan of Bishangarh village in Kurukshetra. It is suspected that the boy was bitten by a common krait snake.

Kashmir, the minor’s uncle, said: “Around 1.30 am, the boy woke up to attend nature’s call and he informed his parents about the snake. Soon after the family members started looking for it and later killed it with the help of neighbours. Around 2.30 am, the boy started complaining of stomach ache, itching and other complications. He was rushed to a hospital. He succumbed at around 3.30 am.” — TNS

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).
