Faridkot, April 21

A team member of Khalsa Aid International, a UK-based humanitarian relief charity group, died in a road mishap near Bajakhana village of Faridkot on Tuesday.

Two members of the group were on their way to Faridkot and Bathinda to distribute PPE kits and masks among doctors and policemen. Inderjeet Singh, who hailed from Dehradun, has sustained injuries.

They were on their way to Bathinda, when their jeep hit a divider on the Bathinda-Amritsar NH.

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).
