The tipper that fell into the gorge in Sangrah.

A tipper plunged into a deep gorge in the Badag mining area of Sangrah sub-division in Sirmaur district. The accident left one person dead and two others injured.

According to reports, the tipper (HP 71-4447) was transporting stones to the Bhutmadhi lime mine when the driver lost control near Kolwa, causing the vehicle to veer off the road and fall into the gorge. The deceased has been identified as Ranjeet Singh, more famous among people as Gyani Mistri. The injured include the driver, Sanjeev Kumar, and another passenger, Arjun Singh. Both were rushed to Nahan Medical College for further treatment.

Sangrah DSP Mukesh Dadwal said that an investigation into the cause of the accident was being done.

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).
