Five members of a family sustained injuries after the roof of their house collapsed and they got trapped under the debris in Babail village in the wee hours today.

The villagers gathered there and began a rescue operation and rescued family members from under the debris.

The injured have been identified as Sushma (45), Suman (38), Neeraj (19), Swati (21) and Mafi (14) of Babail village.

The villagers rushed all injured to the Civil Hospital.

Mahabeer, a family member, said that the house was 40 years old.

He said that Neeraj, his three sisters and mother were sleeping in the room and the roof collapsed around 2.30 am.

“They sustained injuries but their lives were saved,” he added.

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).
