In a tragic incident, three members of a family, including a man and his two nieces, drowned in a canal passing between Rohad and Mandothi villages in the Bahadurgarh area on Saturday. The deceased have been identified as Sunil (28), Ragini (10), and Urmi (7).

The incident occurred last evening when Sunil went to the canal to wash clothes, accompanied by his nieces. While playing near the water, the girls reportedly slipped and fell into the canal. In a desperate attempt to save them, Sunil jumped in after them but drowned as well.

Sunil’s body was recovered on Saturday evening, while the bodies of the two girls were retrieved by divers on Sunday.

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).
