Gurugram, April 23

A labourer was killed while two others were injured after earth caved in during excavation of a basement at the construction site of a builder near Mevka village today. Other labourers created a ruckus at the site and smashed the panes of an ambulance that reached the spot. The body was sent to the mortuary. The deceased was identified as 31-year-old Siddhu Marandi. The condition of the other two is stable. “No safety equipment was provided to the workers,” said ACP (West) Shivarchan Sharma.

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).
