A motorcyclist died and another suffered critical injuries due to a head-on collision between two bikes on the rail overbridge near Dangarkhera village on Thursday.

The residents said the overbridge was constructed in 2012 but streetlights remained operational for only a few months.

The deceased has been identified as Vinod Kumar of Jhumianwali village. The bereaved family asked the police to register a case against the erring youngsters for riding at high speed.

Vinod was returning home from a bitumen mixing plant on his bike around 8.30 pm. Three youths riding on a bike coming from the front rammed head on into the deceased’s motorcycle. One them — Monu, a resident of Alamgarh — was referred to Bathinda after administering first aid.

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).
