A 38-year-old man, Mukesh Patiyal of Duddar village in Mandi district, allegedly shot himself dead.

According to Mandi SP Sakshi Verma, preliminary investigation suggested that mental distress may have been a contributing factor to the tragic incident. The police have initiated proceedings under Section 194 of the BNS and are conducting further investigations.

The incident has sent shockwaves in the local community.

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).
