Three people were killed when a tractor in which they were travelling overturned after its driver lost control of the vehicle in Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh on Thursday, police said.

The accident took place in Jawali sub-division.

The tractor, which was transporting gravel, overturned on Harsar Society-Chadar link road after its driver lost control of the vehicle.

Sangam Kumar (22) of Bhind village, Suraj Kumar (27) of Jaind village and Romit Singh (31) of Panalath village were travelling in the tractor and came under it. They died on the spot, the police said.

A police team reached the spot and sent the bodies for post-mortem, they said.

Nurpur SP Ashok Rattan said an investigation is under way.

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).
