Muktsar, August 5

Two brothers, aged about 9-10 years, were found dead in the “sarowar” (holy pond) of a gurdwara in the Peori road area of Gidderbaha today.

Deceased’s uncle Pappu told the media that Sajan and Monu went to play and watch Teej festivities in the neighbourhood last evening, but did not return.

“However, when we went to the gurdwara this morning following a public announcement about missing boys, we found their bodies in the sarowar there,” he claimed. The parents of both boys are daily-wage earners.

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).
