Major Bhanu Pratap was honoured by Kanwar Sanjay Singh Rana, Minister of Sports, Haryana, for securing the third position in the National Master Games held in Goa in February.

Rana warmly welcomed Major Bhanu and his coach, Gopal Singh Rana, extending his congratulations in a ceremony held in Chandigarh recently. The minister also praised Major Bhanu for his selection in the Master Games Federation Indian Basketball team, set to compete in the world championship in Taiwan in 2025.

Major Bhanu, who has been playing basketball for the past 15 years, has consistently brought laurels in various state and cluster-level tournaments.

Somesh Chauhan said his son Major Bhanu Pratap is currently serving the nation in the Eastern sector. Expressing his gratitude, Major Bhanu thanked the Sports and Forest Minister for the honour.

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).
