Raikot, November 17

Punjabi film actress Daljeet Kaur Khangura (69), a native of Aitiana village of Raikot subdivision, died at Sadhar Bazaar hamlet near here on Thursday morning.

Born (1953) and raised in Siliguri, Daljeet Kaur Khangura was good in studies, sports and art as well. After graduating from national capital’s Lady Shri Ram College, Daljeet joined Pune Film Institute and succeeded in starting her career by acting in a short film, ‘Bonga’, directed by another college student Vidhu Vinod Chopra. She is known to have performed in some popular Hindi films.

Daljeet had been living with her cousin Harjinder Singh Khangura at Sadhar Bazaar during her protracted illness. The body of the actress, known as ‘Hema Malini’ of Punjabi films, was consigned to flames at Sadhar village.

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).
