A matrimonial dispute claimed two lives at Rauke Kalan village in Moga today. Gurbaj Singh, a resident of Raniwal village of Muktsar, allegedly killed his son Mankirat Singh, 6, by giving him poison. Later, he also ended his life by consuming poison.

According to villagers, Karamjit Kaur of Rauke Kalan village married Gurbhaj 10 years ago. For the past some time, the couple had a matrimonial dispute. Gurbhaj today reached his in-laws’ village and killed his son Mankirat on the outskirts of the village and then ended his life.

Badhni Klan SHO Harvinder Singh said a murder case had been registered against Gurbaj on the statement of Karamjit.

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).
