India’s S Chikkarangappa carded a 1-under 69 but slipped from tied-fourth to tied-sixth at the halfway stage of the $1 million World City Championship here today.

Chikkarangappa, who had a top-10 finish last week, moved to 5-under for 36 holes. Overnight leader Miguel Tabuena, winner in India last week, shot a 3-under 67 to get to 10-under. Debutant Taichi Kho, who is playing on his home course, took a two-shot lead over Tabuena after shooting a 64. New Zealand’s Michael Hendry is in third place, four behind Kho, after shooting a 64.

Eight of the nine Indians made the cut. Veteran Jeev Milkha Singh (71-66) and SSP Chawrasia (70-67) were 3-under and tied-23rd. Shiv Kapur (71-67), Veer Ahlawat (71-67) and Honey Baisoya (69-69) were 2-under and tied-36th.

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).
