Police said the passengers were from Karnataka and were proceeding to panathoor ellukochi when the accident occurred at 11.30 am.

According to preliminary investigation, the driver lost control of the vehicle while climbing down a hill and fell onto a house.

“Many people were injured. We are yet to get their details. At least six people lost their lives,” a police official said.

The injured have been shifted to various hospitals of the district.

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).
