The accomplished trio of Sanjeet (92kg), Shiva Thapa (63.5kg) and Mohammad Hussamuddin (57kg) stood just one win away from booking a slot in India’s World Championships squad after they entered the finals of the men’s boxing Nationals here today. Reigning Asian gold medallist Sanjeet, representing Services, proved too strong for Delhi’s Harsh Kaushik as he registered a convincing 5-0 win. Another Services boxer, Hussamuddin, beat Sachin of Haryana 4-1. He will fight against Delhi’s Rohit Mor for the gold.

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).
