Navya of Fazilka and Navreet Kaur of Sangrur emerged winners in long jump and javelin throw events in the girls U-18 category on the second and penultimate day of the three-day 99th Junior Open Punjab Athletics Meet. The meet was being organised by the Ludhiana District Athletics Association at Guru Nanak Stadium.

In the long jump event, Parneet Kaur of Mansa and Harman Kamboj of Fazilka secured second and third positions, respectively, while in the javelin throw event, the second and third positions were bagged by Nihsita of Fazilka and Madhvi Kaur of Ferozepur, respectively.

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).
