Gurugram, August 18

A 58-year-old security guard died after a speeding car hit his bicycle from the rear in Sector 70 here late last night. The car driver fled away from the spot with his vehicle.

The deceased, Vinod Kumar Sharma, is a native of Tikamgarh in Madhya Pradesh. His son, Ajay Sharma, said his father was on his way to a building site in Sector 70A — where he was employed as a security guard — when the accident occurred. “He got critically injuries in the head and died during treatment in the wee hours today,” he said.

An FIR has been registered against the unknown car driver under Sections 279 (rash driving), 304A (causing death by negligence) of the IPC at Badshahpur police station.

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).
