Chandigarh, April 19

A visual during an IPL match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings has taken social media by storm after a kid flaunted a placard asking cricketer Virat Kohli if he could take latter’s daughter Vamika for a date.

The little lad in spectators was seen with a poster bearing message, “Hi Virat uncle, “May I take Vamika out on a date?”

A Twitter post in this regard has been put out by an account, Dr Nimo Yadav, who chided the child’s parents for the act. “Here is something wrong with parenting, idk why people are finding it cute,” the caption reads.

Since being shared, the post has accumulated over 6.6 lakh views. Netizens are extremely critical of the kid’s parents calling the act inappropriate. However they defended the kid calling him ignorant of what he was made to do by his parents.

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).
