Chandigarh skaters won laurels in a recently concluded national event. The local girls’ inline team won the gold medal in the 62nd National Roller Skating Championship in Coimbatore. In the final, the local eves defeated Punjab 2-1, and before setting the title clash the local side overpowered Haryana 4-1. The squad comprised Avantika, Jasnoor Kaur, Diya Gupta, Disha Gupta, Inayat Kaur, Smaira Kalia, Swastika Jain, Tanvi Verma, Rubayat Kamra, Japnoor Kaur, Ashkjeet Kaur and Eknoor Sahota.

Meanwhile, the girls’ quads team won the silver medal in the same championship. In the semifinal, the local team defeated Tamil Nadu. However, in the final, the local eves went down against 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).
