Kapurthala, June 17

A city boy Hasan Abdal Singh Sharma has brought laurels by getting his name registered in the India Book of Records. He is the youngest boy to clinch the second degree black belt in Taekwondo.

His mother Harpreet Kaur shared, “My son got the first belt at the age of eight from the Northern Karate School, Canada and the second one on March 2 this year. Aged 10, he is a student of American Embassy School –ATA. He has also got silver and bronze medal in the US Open Karate held in Florida in 2019. He is the only player from India who can do double stick performance.”

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).
