Jhajjar, June 25

A 75-year-old protester from Moga district of Punjab died at the Tikri border in the wee hours of Friday.

He has been identified as Balvir Singh of Budh Singh Wala village.

Dr Sanjay Dahiya, Civil Surgeon, said Balvir was brought dead to the Trauma Centre at Bahadurgarh.

“The exact reason of death will be ascertained after autopsy,” 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).
