The Chief Khalsa Diwan (CKD) honoured young chess maestro Sahib Singh, who has created history as the first Sikh to attain the prestigious title of International Master (IM) in the global chess arena. He secured this remarkable achievement at the Dubai Open 2025. Sahib Singh clinched three gold medals at the Western Asian Youth U-14 Championship held in Maldives.

CKD president Dr Inderbir Singh Nijjar congratulated Sahib for his success. CKD secretary Ramneek Singh said Sahib’s success brings immense pride to the community.

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).
