Chandigarh, October 26

A picture of Indian cricketers Virat Kohli and Ashish Nehra has gone viral online.

The picture was circulated widely owing to Nehra’s resemblance to newly-elected UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

India’s former captain Mohammed Azharuddin, however, clarified that the picture has Kohli and Nehra in it. “The actual stars in the pic are @imVkohli with @ashishnehra1 Not UK’s new prime minister as being circulated on #WhatsApp”.

He added that the picture doesn’t have Sunak “as being circulated on WhatsApp”.

He was brutally trolled. A user wrote, “Sarcasm ka naam suna ha Azhar Bhai?”

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).
