Patiala, January 8

The Punjab cagers have secured their place in the pre-quarterfinals of the under-19 basketball tournament of the 67th National School Games 2023–24 by winning both league matches. A total of 30 teams from all across the country are participating in the tournament. Punjab’s pre-quarterfinal match is scheduled for January 9.

The District Education Officer (Secondary), Dr Ravinderpal Singh, said former Olympian Tarlochan Singh Sandhu graced the occasion and urged the participants to play sports with passion and sportsman spirit and uphold the honour of our country.

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).
