A 19- year-old student from Mansa district allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself from a ceiling fan at Mata Sahib Kaur Hostel in Punjabi University here on Wednesday.

She was a third-year student in the five-year integrated course.

The incident came to light at around 3.30 pm when the fellow hostellers spotted her hanging from the fan in her room.

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).
