Saanvi Sood, a Class II student of Yadavindra Public School, Mohali, set a new national record by summiting the Everest base camp.

“I had decided to scale the Everest base camp and I am happy to achieve it. It is all because of the focus, courage, grit and determination that I was able to achieve the feat with only six days of preparation,” said Saanvi.

“It is a proud moment for all of us here at the YPS. She has carried our school motto Vidya, Vinay, Veerta to a new high. She is our nation’s pride and we congratulate her and the entire team for this incredible achievement,” said Maj Gen TPS Waraich, Director, YPS.

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).
