Hoshiarpur, January 22

A bus driver and a conductor were killed and six passengers injured when their bus rammed into a truck parked on a roadside near Tuto Mazara, about 30 kms from here, on Saturday, said police.

The accident took place when the bus bearing Punjab registration number was on its way to Hoshiarpur from Delhi, they said.

The deceased were identified as driver Gurnam Singh (50) and conductor Jatinder Kumar (35).

Station House Officer Mahilpur Police Station Balwinder Pal said the injured were admitted in a hospital at Mahilpur.

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).
