UNA, OCTOBER 2

Education Minister Gobind Thakur yesterday honoured Paralympic gold medalist Nishad Kumar at Devi Das Shastri Vidya Mandir in Katodah Khurd village, the school where the latter had studied. He congratulated the teachers for inspiring Nishad to overcome physical challenges and strive to make a name in the field of sports.

Nishad, who belongs to a humble family from Amb in Una district, had won the gold medal in the high jump event at the recently concluded Tokyo Paralympics.

The minister said Nishad was an inspiration to the youth like him and also for the generations to come. Panchayat pradhan Asha Devi and members of the school education society were present on the occasion.

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).
