Deoria (UP), June 28

A 30-year-old man and his niece ended their lives following family opposition to their relationship.

The two allegedly consumed sulfas (a pesticide) in Barhaj police circle.

Circle Officer (Barhaj) Pancham Lal said Sachin was in love with his niece Soni, but their family members were against the relationship.

Sachin asked Soni to come to a field where both of them consumed pesticide, police said.

While Sachin collapsed in the field, Soni rushed back home and died during treatment.

The bodies have been sent for post-mortem.

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).
