Jalandhar, May 20

Mahinderjit Singh (59), an AAP leader and general secretary of the party’s doctor wing, died in a car crash today.

While he was heading towards Kartarpur from Jalandhar, his vehicle crashed into a stationary tipper. He was rushed to a hospital where doctors declared him dead on arrival. He was reportedly heading to Kartarpur for canvassing.

A case has been registered against the tipper driver under Sections 289, 427 and 304-A of the IPC at the Maqsudan police station. The tipper driver is currently absconding.

Mahinderjit was inducted into the party in 2021. He also remained a senior functionary of the Lion’s Club.

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).
