Lakshiv Mittal in the Under-9 open category (four points) and Jiaana Garg in the girls’ category (2.5 points) emerged the winners at the Chandigarh Under-9 Open and Girls Chess Championship.

Lavit Kansal claimed second position in the open event, while Ibaadat Kaur finished second in the girl’s category.

The selected two boys and two girls will represent Chandigarh at the National Under-9 meet to be held in Gurugram from June 15.

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).
