Congress MLA from Alwar's Ramgarh seat Zubair Khan died on Saturday morning in Alwar.

He was sick for sometime. Khan's wife Safia Zubair informed that he breathed his last at 5.50 am today.

Former chief minister Ashok Gehlot and others expressed condolence on Khan's demise.

With this, the number of Congress MLAs in the assembly has reduced to 65.

Seven seats in the house of 200 are now vacant. Five sitting MLAs were elected in Lok Sabha elections and one BJP MLA also passed away some time back.

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).
