A woman lost her life after being struck by a Dadar-bound train while attempting to cross the railway tracks near Bhagtupura in Phagwara.

According to railway officials, the woman was critically injured and was immediately rushed to the Civil Hospital by railway staff. Due to the severity of her condition, doctors referred her to a hospital in Jalandhar, where she later succumbed to her injuries.

Railway sub-inspector Jot Singh stated that the woman’s body has been kept in the mortuary of the Civil Hospital for 72 hours to facilitate identification.

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).
