Four CRPF personnel were injured on Tuesday when their vehicle turned turtle in Jammu and Kashmir’s Kathua district, officials said.

The CRPF personnel were part of a party heading to Billawar to provide security to Minister of State Jitendra Singh, who was scheduled to arrive by a helicopter to address an election rally in support of BJP candidate Satish Sharma there, they said.

The officials said a vehicle, carrying the CRPF personnel, turned turtle after one of its front tyres burst near Billawar, resulting in injuries to four men. The injured were subsequently shifted to the Community Health Centre, Billawar, they said.

Meanwhile, an Army man lost his life when his motorcycle met with an accident near Banvat village in Poonch district this morning. The deceased was identified as Mohd Afzal (22), a soldier posted outside J&K.

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).
