Kiratpur Sahib, November 27

In a tragic incident, three children were crushed to death under a passenger train when they were going to pluck wild berries here today.

The deceased have been identified as Mohinder (7), Rohit (11) and Vicky (8), all residents of Kiratpur Sahib.

The deceased had gone to pluck wild berries and when they were crossing the railway line at nearby Kalyanpur village, a passenger train going towards Anandpur Sahib around 11.20 am crushed them leading to their death on the spot.

The GRP has initiated inquest proceedings under Section 174 of the CrPC.

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).
