Patiala, January 2

Patiala girl Harnoor Kaur Nagra brought laurels to the city by winning a silver medal in the DAV National Games, which concluded at DAV University, Jalandhar, on December 31.

The 13-year-old judo player won the medal in the U-19 age group in the 63-kg category while competing with a player six years elder to her.

Earlier this year, Harnoor had won a gold medal in the National School Games at the state level, a silver medal in the Punjab Khed Mela and a gold medal in the DAV cluster state-level competition.

“DAV Global School principal Sandeep Renu and my coach Surinder Walia motivated me and helped me excel in this sport,” said Harnoor, who aims to represent India in this event.

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).
