A motorcyclist was killed when a speeding car reportedly hit his bike from the rear near Eastwood Village on the national highway on Tuesday night.

The victim has been identified as Ravi Kumar of Jalandhar. He was travelling to Khatti village, near Phagwara, along with his wife Kamaljit Kaur to meet relatives.

The car driver fled after hitting them. Kamaljit also sustained injuries.

The police have registered a case under Sections 304A, 336 and 279, IPC, against the unknown driver.

The body of the deceased was handed over to the family after a post-mortem examination conducted at the local Civil Hospital.

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).
