Priyam Negi, a student from Rampur, recently won a silver medal in mixed martial arts at a championship held in Indonesia. Upon her return to Rampur, she received a warm welcome from local residents and the school staff at the PM Shri Excellence Girls' Senior Secondary Shool, where celebrations were held in her honour. Priyam, a former student of the school, addressed the students encouraging them to pursue their goals with determination, resilience and hard work. In her speech, Priyam emphasised the importance of learning self defence, especially mixed martial arts, for young women. She also encouraged the youth to stay away from drugs and embrace skills that contribute positively to society. Priyam clinched silver medal in the 52 kg category at the CFN competition in Bali, Indonesia, after defeating an Indonesian opponent.

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).
