A man was killed in a road accident involving a makeshift handcart and a car on the Khalwara bypass near Phagwara. The deceased has been identified as Keemat Singh of Ajit Nagar, Jalandhar.

According to sources, Singh was travelling in his handcart when a car collided with it. He sustained serious injuries and was rushed to the local Civil Hospital, where doctors declared him brought dead.

In a separate incident, four members of a family sustained injuries in a collision between a motorcycle and a garbage cart while en route to Nakodar. The injured were admitted to the Civil Hospital for treatment.

Both incidents highlight the growing concerns over road safety and the dangers posed by reckless driving and unregulated traffic on local roads. The authorities are expected to investigate the cases further.

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).
