Patiala, March 11

The Women’s Kho Kho Championship organised by the Punjab Kho Kho Association as part of the ‘Khelo India Dus ka Dum’ event concluded at Polo Ground here today.

The closing ceremony of the championship was graced by Sangeeta Joshi, Deputy Director, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Government of India. Sangeeta, an erstwhile national-level kho kho player, was impressed with the skills displayed by the players and congratulated them on their performance. “I am surprised at the kind of energy and skills these players have. If groomed further, they will surely do well for themselves and the country,” she said.

Muktsar team emerged the winner of the tournament, the Ghanour team bagged the second position while Physical College, Patiala, and Ghanauri Kalan, Sangrur, jointly won the third position.

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).
