A tragic accident occurred near Kurala village around 4:15 pm when a car travelling towards Tanda suffered a tyre burst, causing the vehicle to lose control, hit the divider, and overturn.

The car was being driven by Satwinder Singh Gopi, a resident of village Satiyana, who died on the spot. His companion Ashwani Kumar from Sherpur sustained minor injuries.

Upon receiving information, the Road Safety Force promptly arrived at the scene, administered first-aid to the injured, and cleared the vehicle from the highway to restore traffic flow. The local police have initiated an investigation into the incident.

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).
