Reasi/Jammu, April 30

Three people were killed when their car skidded off the road and fell into a deep gorge in Reasi district of Jammu and Kashmir, police said on Sunday.

The vehicle was on its way to Karagh from Reasi town and on reaching Tote village, its driver lost control and the vehicle rolled down into more than 100-metre-deep gorge late Saturday night, a police official said.

He said three people – Nasib Singh (65) of Karagh Tote, Karnail Singh (47) of Gull, Tote and Mohan Chand (32) of Devigarh – died on the spot.

The rescuers had a tough time to retrieve the bodies as the vehicle also caught fire, the official said.

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).
