Ujjain (MP), June 10

Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) Ratlam district president Samrath Chouhan (42), who was missing from his home, was found dead under suspicious circumstances near here on Thursday, a police official said.

His body was found in a dried drain near Bhatpachlana village in Ujjain district, which borders Ratlam, he said.

“Chouhan was last seen on Wednesday night and his body was found in a drain after his family members complained that he was missing,” Bhatpachlana police station in-charge Sanjay Verma told PTI.

Prima facie, it appears he was hit by a stick and some blunt object, Verma said, adding further probe was on. PTI

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).
