Abohar, July 15

A farmer drowned after the car he was driving fell into the Dangarkhera minor (sub-canal) last night near here.

The deceased, Rajwinder (35), was returning to his native Kamalwala village from Malout and reportedly lost control of the vehicle leading to the mishap.

The car was pulled out of the canal today and the body was handed over to the family after a post-mortem examination.

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).
