Sonepat, February 3

Two protesting farmers from Punjab died at the Singhu border today. Their bodies were sent to the General Hospital for postmortem examination.

The deceased were identified as 68-year-old Jogender Singh of Dal village in Tarn Taran and 47-year-old Jasmail Singh of Chananwal in Barnala.

Jogender was found dead in his tent at a protest site in Kundli. He had come here on January 20. His associates informed the police about his death.

Jasmail died this evening under suspicious circumstances. He was a part of the farmers’ protest since November 27. Earlier, he had joined protests in Punjab. — TNS

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).
