New Delhi, August 10

General Manoj Pande on Wednesday felicitated the Army sportsmen who won medals at recently concluded Commonwealth Games.

Army sportspersons clinched four Gold, one Silver and three Bronze medals. The individual medal winners are Naib Subedar Jeremy Lalrinnunga, Havildar Achinta Sheuli, Subedar Amit Panghal and Subedar Deepak Punia (all Gold medal winners); Naib Subedar Avinash Sable (Silver) and Havildar Deepak Nehra, Subedar Mohammad Hussamuddin, and Subedar Sandeep Kumar (Bronze.)

18 participants in the Indian contingent were from the Army, which in 2011 had launched “Mission Olympic Programme”.

Army Chief acknowledged the superlative performance and felicitated the participants by awarding Commendation Cards and cash incentives. Medal winners will also get out-of-turn promotions as per policy in vogue.

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).
