Chandigarh, May 20

Captain of the 1975 Hockey World Cup winning Indian team and Padma Shri Olympian Ajit Pal Singh was bereaved on Saturday when his wife and international basketball player Kiran Ajit Pal Singh (69) passed away.

The last rites will be performed in New Delhi on Sunday.

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).
