A policeman was killed when his car skidded off the road and plunged into a deep gorge along the Mughal road in Poonch district. Constable Ruksar Ahmad Khan, a resident of Mendhar, was on way to Surankote from Kashmir when the accident took place at Dugriyan near Pir Ki Gali late Wednesday night. Officials said locals rescued the police personnel in an unconscious state from accident site and took him to sub-district hospital Surankote but he was declared brought dead by the doctors.

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).
