New Delhi, December 19

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) have given their seal of approval to the Indian Olympic Association’s December 10 election, in which PT Usha took over as its president. The joint letter ends all speculation of an impending ban that was lurking on the IOA.

“Our first step is clear and now we can put our focus on working towards the preparations of the Paris Olympic Games,” Usha said.

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).
