A student of Dr BR Ambedkar National Institute of Technology died by suicide by hanging himself from the ceiling fan of his hostel room on Friday.

His friends said that he was not taking their calls. So they went to his room and saw him hanging from the fan from an open window. They immediately raised an alarm and called up the college authorities.

SHO Maqsudan said that the family arrived on Saturday. They got the post-mortem of the victim done and took his body home for performing the last rites. The family has not got lodged any complaint or levelled any accusation against anyone.

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).
