Solan, March 9

The unidentified body of a boy was found in the bushes on an open plot at Himachal Housing and Urban Development Authority (HIMUDA) colony at Paonta Sahib in Sirmaur district on Tuesday morning.

DSP, Paonta Sahib, Bir Bahadur said the post-mortem examination would be conducted after identification. Since two empty bottles of Rexcof cough syrup were recovered from his pockets, it seems that he was an addict and could have died due to drug overdose.

The body was first spotted by a rickshaw puller. The police have circulated the boy’s picture for identifying the body. — TNS

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).
