Amritsar, June 12

With a view to promoting sports, Punjab minister Harbhajan Singh ETO on Monday distributed abound 250 kits to players of different schools in Khalchian zone near here.

Addressing the summer coaching camp of children’s sports at the village sports ground, ETO said the government was also distributing cash prizes to encourage sports persons. He said the objective of the state government was to restore the lost glory of the state in the field of sports. Sports persons who had excelled were therefore being rewarded, he said.

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).
