Two trainees of the Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) hockey coaching centre were part of the Ludhiana boys U-11 hockey team that emerged the champions in the recently held Punjab State Primary Schools Hockey Championship, held at Mohali.

Jotsaroop Singh and Shivraj Singh, both students of Sacred Heart Senior Secondary School; Bhai Randhir Singh Nagar, Ludhiana; trainees of the PAU centre, run under the supervision of coaches Guteg Singh and Arunjit Kaur, played a pivotal role in the team’s title win.

Ludhiana boys remained unbeaten in this championship to clinch the title. They trounced Hoshiarpur 11-0, outwitted Bathinda 10-5 and in the final, edged out Gurdaspur 7-5 to lay their hands on the winners’ trophy.

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).
