NURPUR, FEBRUARY 2

A truck hit a motorcycle at Indora Mor on the Pathankot-Jalandhar road last evening, killing a couple on the two wheeler.

The deceased Anil Singh (42) of Bhai-Indoria in Indora and his wife Suman (41) injured seriously and rushed to a local hospital. They were declared brought dead by doctor.

The deceased were on the way to their home from Pathankot when their motorcycle was hit by a speeding truck.

The couple is survived by two children. The bodies were handed over to the kin after the post-mortem examination.

Deputy Superintendent of Police Sahil Arora said a hit-and-run case under Section 187 of the Motor Vehicles Act and Sections 279 and 304 (A) of the Indian Penal Code had been registered against the truck driver.

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).
