Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu has expressed deep sorrow over the passing of Havildar Sanjeev Kumar of the 13th Battalion, Dogra Regiment. A native of Dandera village in Baijnath, Kangra district, he succumbed to illness at Command Hospital, Bengaluru.

The Chief Minister said Sanjeev Kumar’s service to the nation will always be remembered. He instructed the district administration to extend every possible assistance to the bereaved family.

Reaffirming the state government’s solidarity with them, Sukhu assured full support during this difficult time. He prayed for eternal peace to the departed soul and strength for the family to endure this profound loss.

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).
