Four people were killed and two others seriously injured on Tuesday when an SUV carrying them rammed into a tree and overturned in Gujarat's Rajkot district, police said.

The driver of the SUV lost control over the vehicle near Supedi village on a national highway, following which it crashed into the tree and overturned, a police official said.

The SUV was travelling to Upleta in Rajkot district.

"While four of the six occupants died on the spot, two were shifted to a hospital in Junagadh in a serious condition," the official said.

The deceased were identified as Kishore Hirani (64), Vallabh Rundhani (57), Aftab Pathan (19) and Mohammad Sumra.

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).
