Chandigarh, July 8

Ananya Kamboj, a student of Vivek High School, has been selected to represent India as a ‘Young Journalist’ at the Gazprom International Children’s Social Programme Football for Friendship.

The programme has bagged Guinness world record titles for the nationalities training session in history (2019), the most users in a football video hangout (2020) and the most visitors at a virtual stadium (2021).

“Being part of three Guinness world record events, I feel proud, honoured, and happy to have achieved something that on one hand is rather rare, but on the other is simply the result of my passion for football,” said Ananya. — TNS

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).
