Solan, January 13

Three women and a man working in Balmukund Laghu Udyog, a plastic pipe manufacturing industry, in the Chambaghat area of Solan were injured when the compressor machine installed there burst around 3 pm today.

Those injured are Kashmiro Devi (44), Anu (28), Promila (38) and Sandeep Kumar (55). They were rushed to the local Regional Hospital where their condition is stated to be stable.

Additional SP Shiv Kumar Sharma said that a probe was being conducted to know the cause of the blast and expert opinion would also be sought. A case of negligence has been registered against the factory management and further investigation was underway.

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).
