A mild earthquake of magnitude 3.4 struck the Kullu region early this morning, according to the National Seismological Centre. The earthquake occurred at 6.50 am, with its epicentre located at latitude 31.76 and longitude 77.49, at a depth of 5 km.

The event has been reviewed and classified as a minor earthquake, and no reports of loss of life or property have been received. Local authorities have not issued any immediate warnings and the situation remains under control.

Residents of Kullu experienced mild tremors, but no significant damages or disruptions were reported.

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).
