Kullu, August 19

A private Volvo bus (UP-81BT-5690) parked on the roadside near the Mahadevi Teerath temple, 5 km from here, for over a year caught fire today. The bus reportedly belongs to Sukhvendra Singh of Aligarh.

The bus caught fire around 10.45 am and nearby shopkeepers called the Fire Department. The fire engine reached there and doused the flames but the bus was damaged. The police also reached there to investigate the incident. Kullu Fire Officer Durga Singh said the cause of the fire was yet to be ascertained. — OC

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).
