The PM had an hour-long meet with the 54-strong para-athletes, their coaches and their parents. “Talking to all of you has given me the confidence that India is going to create a new history in the Paralympics Games also. I wish all the players and coaches all the very best for your success, for the victory of the country,” the PM said.

“I can see in you infinite self-confidence and willpower to achieve something. It is the result of your hard work that today the largest number of Indian athletes is going to the Paralympics,” he added.

Two-time medallist Devendra Jhajhariya, Arjuna award winner Amit Saroha and former medallist Deepa Malik, who now heads the Paralympics Committee of India, were part of the interaction. — TNS

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).
