Her sports achievements include 151 Gold, 40 Silver and 34 Bronze medals.She was awarded a medal and a cash prize of Rs 1 lakh and a certificate. Tarushi trains at Emerald Martial Arts in Panchkula under Master Shiv Raj Gharti.

School Director Sanjay Sethi congratulated Tarushi and her parents on her achievement and wished her many more accolades in the 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).
