A 23-year-old Ludhiana youth Prabhjot Singh drowned in the Yamuna at Paonta Sahib today.

The deceased had come to pay obeisance at the gurdwara along with his family and relatives comprising seven members. Three of them went to take a bath in the river and entered into the deep water. While two youths managed to swim ashore, Prabhjot was washed away. A search was launched and divers located his body. He was a resident of Fatehganj, Ludhiana.

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).
