A speeding car hit a motorcyclist near Malko Majra village on the Sirhind-Patiala Road last night. The deceased has been identified as Avtar Singh, a resident of Sirhind.

In his statement to the police, brother of the deceased Paramjit Singh said he was following his brother when he was returning home last night and met with an accident. He said as they reached near Malko Majra village, a speeding car hit his brother’s bike and fled the spot.

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).
