This year's Annual sports of local Adivasi community as well others in my hometown. Every year on Makar Sankranti this sports used to organize by the locals. Main attractions are different types of competition. Some are extremely funny. Such as..
1. Atta chocolate race for kids
2. Jalebi race for kids
3. Goli chammach race ( spoon and Marble) for kids
4. Banana pole climbing for women's
5. Biscuit race for kids
6. Handi/ earthen pot hit competition for women's
7. Arrow shooting is of two types, first isTarget shooting and the second is long distance shooting. Target shooting is normal as you can see in pics but long distance shooting is to shoot arrows at open fields and the arrow/shooter covers the maximum distance will win. Both male and female can participate in this event.
8. 100 mtr race for boys
9. Tribal dance competition
10. Tribal dress competition etc
This time due to covid the presence was low.
