Chandigarh, December 20

Hockey Punjab registered a (3-0) win over Hockey Maharashtra to enter the final of the Hockey India Senior Men National Championship in Pune. Captain Rupinder Pal Singh (28th, 46th) starred with a brace and Surdarshan Singh (38th) chipped in with a goal for the winning team.

In the second semis, Uttar Pradesh Hockey edged past Hockey Karnataka (2-1) in a closely fought encounter. Mohammad Amir Khan (4th) and Vishal Singh (8th) got on the score sheet for Uttar Pradesh Hockey, while captain Mohamed Raheel (22nd) scored the only goal for Hockey Karnataka. The 3rd/4th place match will be played between Hockey Karnataka and Hockey Maharashtra on December 21, followed by the final between Uttar Pradesh Hockey and Hockey Punjab.

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).
