The pair of Anirudh Sangra and Arnav Bishnoi outplayed Lakshya Gupta and Keshav Dangi in straight sets 6-1 6-3 to win the boys’ U-18 doubles title, on the penultimate day of the CLTA-AITA Championship Series (CS-7) Tennis Tournament held here today.

In the boys’ U-18 semifinals, third seed Sangra defeated Dangi 6-1 6-1 and sixth seed Manipur’s Bhicky Sagolshem easily overpowered local contender Parmarth Kaushik 6-0 6-0 to set up the title clash.

In the girls’ U-18 semis, top seed Riya Kaushik struggled hard before defeating fourth seed Vanya Arora of Haryana. Vanya claimed the first set in a tie-break 6-7(5).

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).
