A Chennai-bound flight from Jaipur, before the scheduled landing, experienced a tyre burst on Sunday morning and the authorities facilitated an emergency landing here for the aircraft, airport officials said. All passengers and the crew are safe and they deplaned safely upon landing, they said.

Before landing, the pilot detected the tyre burst and alerted authorities, and they acted as per norms for landing under such circumstances. "Upon visual inspection of the aircraft, wheel no 2 was found damaged with trye pieces coming out from the tyre-left interior..." according to officials.

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).
