India’s air rifle shooters continued their dominance at the 15th Asian Airgun Championship, registering 1-2 finishes in both the junior and senior mixed team events in Daegu, South Korea, today.

Mehuli Ghosh and Arjun Babuta won the gold medal match 16-10 against compatriots Kiran Jadhav and Elavenil Valarivan, while Divyansh Singh Panwar and Ramita emerged 17-11 winners over Sri Karthik Sabari Raj Ravishankar and Nancy in the junior event.

India also won a bronze medal when Kanishka Dagar shot 239.6 to finish third in the women’s youth pistol event. India has now picked up 12 gold medals.

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).
