Chandigarh, November 16

Chandigarh Golf Association’s executive committee members met Punjab Governor and UT Administrator Banwarilal Purohit today. The local team, which recently brought laurels to the city by winning two gold medals in the National Games, was also honoured.

SK Sharma, former DGP of Punjab and president of the Chandigarh Golf Association, along with Sanjiv DP Azad, general secretary, Harpuneet Singh Sandhu, treasurer, and Col HS Baidwan, secretary, presented a memento to the Punjab Governor.

Golfers Karandeep Kochhar, Anant S Ahlawat, Lakhmehar Pardesi and Hazel Chuhan were also present. Col Baidwan apprised the Governor of how gold medallist Kochhar became the first-ever golfer to break the course record at the Kensville Golf Resort, Ahmedabad, with an unbelievable score of 21 under par.

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).
