Shimla, September 3

One trekker was killed and another injured while the third trekker and three porters from Uttarkashi in Uttarakhand were trapped beyond Chitkul yesterday and are missing.

Three trekkers along with six porters started trekking from Uttarkashi via the Khimloga Pass to Chitkul.

One of the trekkers fell down near the Khimlog Pass and died while another suffered a hand injury. The Kinnaur administration has sent teams to trace the missing trekker and porters.

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).
