Abohar, August 11

A fire broke out in a mechanical workshop on Sito Gunno Road in Abohar on Saturday night. The fire was so fierce that the entire goods lying inside the shop were burnt to ashes and even the walls were damaged.

The owner of the workshop, Kuldeep Singh, said that at around 1 am, he received information about the incident. He immediately reached the spot but the fire had already razed everything.

The people nearby had already informed the fire brigade. The team was successful in controlling the fire after about an hour. The owner said that new batteries and customers’ belongings were in the shop, all of which had been gutted in the fire.

A short circuit is believed to be the cause of fire.

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).
