A dozen farm workers were injured late last night near Maujgarh village, 21km from here on the Abohar-Sriganganagar stretch of NH 62, when a pickup van carrying them collided with a four-wheeler of the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). All the injured were brought to the Sub-Divisional Civil Hospital here. Two of them were found in critical condition and have been referred to higher facilities.

The labourers were returning after plucking kinnow fruit in some orchards in a pickup van. As soon as they reached Maujgarh, their pickup van collided with a Bolero camper of the NHAI. Some of the injured have been identified as, Raju, his wife Rita, Avinash, Rishabh, Khushboo and Kailash residents of Patrewala and Om Prakash and Suman of Nihalkhera village.

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).
