Kullu, July 15

An electrician was electrocuted while working on an 11KV line in Sainj valley of the district today. Gaurav Singh, SP, Kullu, said Ila Ram of Raila village of Sainj was a contractor and was working on a power line between the NHPC Parbati-II power house and the substation at Sainj.

He said the victim fell down from the pole after getting an electric shock and died on the spot. The SP said a case under Sections 336 and 304A of the IPC had been registered at the Bhuntar police station and further investigation was being carried out.

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).
