Rohtak, April 11

Two migrant workers died after a fire broke out at the Maruti Research and Development unit at Industrial Model Township (IMT) in Rohtak on Monday. The police have registered a case.

Foam used in making car seats supposedly caught fire due to a short-circuit. Fire engines were rushed to the Maruti unit and the flames were doused in a couple of hours.

The deceased have been identified as Arjun of Champaran in Bihar and Manoj of Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh. Their bodies have been sent for a post-mortem examination to ascertain the cause of death.

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).
