Patiala’s Aliana Sharma brought laurels to city, her school, coaches and parents as she bagged two gold medals and a silver medal in the 68th Inter-District School Games Swimming Competition.

She also broke two records in the 200-m and 100-m breast stroke competition. A student of Class VII at St Peter’s Academy in the city, she was trained by coaches Rajpal Singh Chahal and Raj Kumar Raju. Aliana won the 100-m breast race in just 1.31 minutes. She won the 200-m in 3.17 minutes and also won a silver medal in the 50 meter 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).
