Bhim Singh, founder of the Jammu and Kashmir Panthers Party (JKPP), passed away at a hospital here on Tuesday.

“He was unwell for more than a year and passed away at a hospital in Jammu. He was 81. He is survived by wife and a son. The latter lives in London,” family sources said.

His death has been mourned by a cross-section of society, including politicians, social workers, businessmen, etc. IANS

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).
