Jhajjar, June 26

Another Punjab farmer died at the Tikri border on Friday night.

He had been staying near the Sector 9 Community Centre in Bahadurgarh town.

He has been identified as Sukhvinder Singh (45) of Token Kalan village of Ludhiana district.

Dr Sanjay Dahiya, Civil Surgeon, said Sukhvinder was brought dead to the Trauma Centre in Bahadurgarh. The exact cause of death would be ascertained after the post-mortem that would be conducted later on Saturday, he added.

Two farmers from Punjab have died during the ongoing farmers’ protest at the Tikri border in the past two days. A 75-year-old farmer from Moga district died on Thursday.

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).
