Chandigarh, March 19

In a tragic incident, a 38-year-old man accidentally stabbed himself while enacting a stunt during Holi celebrations in the Banganga area of Madhya Pradesh.

The mishap took place in Indore on Thursday night.

Police said Gopal Solanki, who was dancing with his friends and had a knife in his hands, accidentally stabbed himself when he tried to enact a stunt, as per reports.

In the video, it is seen that Gopal, who looked heavily drunk, danced with his friends. He then could be seen stabbing himself four times with the knife in an attempt to recreate a stunt sequence.

Solanki’s friends and family members rushed him to Shri Aurobindo Institute of Medical Sciences where the doctors declared him dead.

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).
