Punjabi litterateur Kultar Singh and his son Inderpreet Singh, natives of Ghumiala village in the Mahilpur block, died of Covid in England.

Kultar’s nephew Jaswant Singh Khabra, who lives in Ghumiala, said Kultar Singh (86) was living in the Slough town in England since 1964. Some time ago, Kultar and his son Inderpreet were found Covid-19 positive and were undergoing treatment at a hospital there.

On May 9, Inderpreet died and later on May 10, Kultar also lost his life. Kultar had written six books and his contribution towards the spread of Punjabi was widely accepted. He was an active member of institutions such as the Gurdwara Singh Sabha, Slough, Indian Workers’ Association, Pathak, and Likhari Sabha. On Wednesday, the news of their death triggered a wave of grief among relatives and literature lovers of the area.

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).
