Paris, August 16

India’s compound archers continued their winning run and stormed into the final of the men’s and women’s team events to confirm two medals for the country in the World Cup Stage 4 here today.

Ojas Deotale, who recently won a historic individual gold at the World Championships in Berlin, landed his arrow closer to the centre (X) to help India overcome South Korea 235-235 (30*-30) in the shoot-off of their men’s team semifinal. Deotale, Prathamesh Jawkar and Abhishek Verma will take on USA next.

The women’s team, which won the World Championships title in Berlin, came back from behind to defeat Great Britain 234-233. The top-seeded trio of Jyothi Surekha Vennam, Aditi Swami and Parneet Kaur will face Mexico in the final.

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).
