A woman was killed while her husband was seriously injured after the roof of the room they were sleeping in collapsed at Rawa village on Sunday morning.

The deceased was identified as Soma Devi (55) while her husband was identified as Miya Ram, residents of Rawa village of Shahabad in Kurukshetra.

As per the information, the incident happened around 6 in the morning when, all of a sudden, the girder of the room fell and the roof collapsed.

Soon after, the neighbours launched a rescue operation, and after removing the debris, both victims were taken to the Community Health Centre Shahabad where Soma Devi was declared dead, while her husband was undergoing treatment.

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).
