Krishnav Mahajan (10), a Class V student of Doon International School, Gurdaspur, took part in the ‘Painting and Drawing Veer Gatha Award Project’ held in New Delhi recently and was felicitated by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh after being declared as one of the ‘Super 100 Children’.

The competition was organised by the Department of Defence and the Ministry of Education. He was presented with a cheque for Rs 10,000 for his achievement.

He was also felicitated by staff of the school on his return to Gurdaspur. His victory has buoyed his fellow students to do well in the state and national-level competitions.

Principal Usha Sharma and school directors Amandeep Singh and Gagandeep Singh encouraged him to continue to strive for a bright future.

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).
