95-Yr-Old Sabitri Donates Land for Keeping Village's Sports Legacy Alive
The New Indian Express Bhubaneswar
|March 23, 2025
The long-harboured dream of Singjhar village in Nuapada district of having a mini stadium to foster its passion for sports and nurture talents has come true, thanks to 95-year-old Sabitri Majhi who gave up five acres of her ancestral land for the purpose.
Budharaja Cup cricket tournament every year, which witnesses participation of teams from Raipur, Bilaspur, Cuttack, Bhubaneswar, and neighbouring Jharkhand. Besides, it hosts football and kabaddi tournaments too. However, there was no dedicated sports ground in the village till Sabitri decided to do the needful. Earlier, villagers used private or government land for the tournaments.
