Una, August 26

A man drowned after he jumped into the Swan river from a bridge near Santoshgarh here today.

The deceased has been identified as Rajesh Kumar (42), a resident of Basal village of the district. He was allegedly suffering from mental illness.

Some local youths spotted the man while jumping into the river and tried to save him. When the attempt proved futile, they informed the police about the incident.

The body was recovered some time later, said Assistant Superintendent of Police Parveen Dhiman.

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).
