Solan, February 8

Solan boy Harshit Jain has done the city proud by attaining 99.91 percentile in National Testing Agency’s Joint Entrance Examination (Main) exams whose result was released today.

An alumni of Solan Public School, Jain has credited his success to his family.

Both his parents are engineers and alumni of National Institute of Technologies. Harshit aims to do computer engineering from a renowned institute like IIT and has begun his preparation for the JEE Advanced exam to be held later this year.

Apart from self-study and help received from the school, he also undertook a six-month online coaching which helped him crack this exam. “It was in eleventh class that he started preparing for JEE examination and has since then been consistently pursuing his aim,” informed his mother Ritu Jain.

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).
