A Haryana Roadways bus caught fire near Bata Chowk on National Highway 19 here on Monday night. While there were no passengers in the bus at the time of incident, the driver and the conductor escaped unhurt by jumping off the moving bus.

The incident took place around 8.20 pm today when the bus was going from the Ballabgarh bus stand to the roadways depot in Gurugram. After getting information, fire tenders reached the spot and doused the flames. Short circuit is suspected to be the reason behind the fire.

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).
