In the U20 4x100m mixed relay event, Punjab (Jaslin Saini, Lovejot Kaur, Varun Sharma, J Dhillon) beat Chandigarh (Punya Handa, Anshika Sharma, Puneet, Gurbachan Singh) for gold. Tamil Nadu set an example by fielding their teams in all the events. The men’s 4x100m team claimed the second position. In the 4x100m mixed relay, Tamil Nadu claimed the top position, with Punjab coming in third. In the U20 men’s and mixed 4x400m relay events, Tamil Nadu finished on top, with Punjab taking bronze in the men’s section.

‘False’ start While a new benchmark was set in the men’s 4x100m relay event, an embarrassing situation was created when a volunteer was asked to help stabilise one of the starting blocks. With one of the blocks malfunctioning before a race, a volunteer used his feet to keep the apparatus from slipping. Photo: Deepankar Sharda

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).
