Mandi, July 14

A team of the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Institute of Mountaineering and Allied Sports (ABVIMAS), Manali, evacuated 200 stranded people from the snowbound Shrikhand Mahadev area of Kullu district today. Four bodies were also recovered from the area. The deceased were stranded in the area for the past few days and had gone to the Shrikhand Mahadev shrine after July 7.

The four bodies recovered from the area were also brought to the base camp. The victims were stuck in mountains and ice crevasses above 17,000 feet.

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).
