Patiala, August 26

Aman Sehrawat asserted his supremacy in the men’s 57kg freestyle category as he clinched a World Championships berth while seasoned Olympian Deepak Punia skipped the national trials here today.

Aman defeated Atish Todkar in the final. Besides Sehrawat, Akash Dahiya will be representing India in the 61kg after getting the better of Neeraj, while Anuj Kumar will be seen in action in the 65kg category, in which Olympics medallist Bajrang Punia competes.

In Deepak’s absence, Sandeep Singh got the better of Jonty Kumar to win in the 86kg category.

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).
