Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Inderjit Singh of the Punjab Police tragically lost his life in a motorcycle accident near Bhullarai Colony on the Phagwara bypass late last night.

A resident of Paddi Khalsa Virk village and in charge of the pilot unit of Phagwara police, the ASI was traveling on his Bullet motorcycle when he reportedly lost control and fell. He sustained severe injuries that proved fatal.

Eyewitnesses recalled hearing a loud noise before discovering the officer lying on the road, with his motorcycle stopped some distance ahead.

The body has been sent to the civil hospital for a post-mortem examination, and police investigation is on.

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).
