India went down 1-3 to Uzbekistan in the semifinals of the FIDE World Team Chess Championship here today.

The two teams drew 2-2 in the first round, with SL Narayanan’s superb win over Shamsiddin Vokhidov being offset by SP Sethuraman’s loss to Jakhongir Vokhidov. Vidit Gujrathi drew with Nodirbek Yakubboev, followed by another draw between Nihal Sarin and Javokhir Sindharov. In Round 2, Gujrathi and Sarin lost to Yakubboev and Sindharov. Narayanan beat Vokhidov in 44 moves but that was not enough.

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).
