A B.Tech (Biotechnology) student at a private university located on the Phagwara-Jalandhar highway allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself in his PG room. The deceased has been identified as Rohan Kamboj. His body has been sent to the local civil hospital for post-mortem examination.

According to a complaint filed by Rohan’s father, Anil Kumar, a resident of Yusufkhedi village, Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh, the deceased was being mentally harassed by a man, identified as Kartik Yadav, son of Sudesh Kumar Yadav, from Dwarka, Delhi.

Based on the complaint, police have registered a case against Kartik Yadav for allegedly forcing Rohan to commit suicide.

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).
