Rohtak, July 18

Two workers were killed and another was injured in a gas pipeline explosion at a manufacturing unit located in Rohtak IMT today.

The injured workers were rushed to the local PGIMS, but two of them could not be saved. The deceased workers were identified as Bijender and Ramesh. Another worker Sachidanand, who was injured in the blast, was undergoing treatment till the time of the filing of this report.

The police have registered a case in this regard. Enraged over the incident, fellow workers of the deceased and injured staged a protest demonstration in front of the factory. Family members of a deceased worker alleged that timely medical care was not provided to the injured workers.

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).
