The Athletics Federation of India (AFI) will organise the Olympic-qualifying contest, the 11th South Asian and Indian Open Race Walking Competition, at Sukhna Lake on January 30 and 31. It will be a platform for athletes to cement their place in the national squad for the Paris Olympics. The AFI will also select the national team for the inaugural marathon-race walking mixed relay. The four-leg event comprises one male and one female athlete. Athletes will cover approximately 10 km in each leg. The top 22 teams will get automatic qualification during the World Athletics Race Walk Team Championships to be held in Antalya (Turkey) from April 20 to 21. The fight for the top three positions in the men’s 20 km is expected to be among national record holder Akashdeep Singh, Asian bronze medallist Vikash Singh and Paramjeet Bisht and Suraj Panwar.

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).
