A four-day national-level wrestling competition, carrying prizes worth Rs 1 crore, will commence on June 2 at Gangath in the neighbouring Indora Assembly constituency on the occasion of district-level Kyalu Baba fair.

Men and women wrestlers from Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Jammu will participate in the competition. Besides, wrestlers from Iran have confirmed their participation to the Kyalu Baba Mela committee.

According to Sunil Gupta, organising secretary of the committee, MLA Malinder Rajan will inaugurate the wrestling championship and Agriculture Minister Chander Kumar will preside over the function in the presence of special guest Sports Minister Yadvinder Goma.

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).
