The lintel (concrete slab) of an under-construction shop collapsed in Old Hamida Colony of Yamunanagar on Thursday afternoon. Three labourers reportedly sustained minor injuries in the incident.

A car and a tea stall were damaged due to the debris of the lintel.

After receiving information, Jaswant Singh, In-charge of the Hamida police post, reached the spot and started investigating of the case.

According to information, labourers had laid about 80 per cent of the lintel when it collapsed at 3.15 pm, reportedly due to a wooden support beam shaking. “There is no report of any casualty in the accident. An investigation is being conducted,” the Hamida police post In-charge said.

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).
