Thoubal, February 28 2016: Sports industry, like many other industries, has rapidly transformed in the past decades.

As such, society should no longer confine women to the household chores alone but encourage them to go out and participate in sports and such other activities, MLA K Ranjit has stated.

He was speaking at the inaugural function of a Social Welfare Club at Cherapur under Khangabok A/C today.

Attending as chief guest, MLA K Ranjit said, the world has changed remarkably.

Countries no longer wage war to conquer another country, instead they seek to overtake others through sports.

Internationally acclaimed boxers MC Mary Kom and Sarita are both women.

The masses should change their mindset regarding the role of women in a society.

Instead of confining them to the household chores, women should be encouraged to take part in sports and such other activity, the MLA added.

Functional president Khangabok A/C MLA Okram Landhoni advocated that education and sports must go together.

International weightlifting champion Sorokhaibam Nanao was also felicitated at the function.

The club donated Rs 10,000 to the Chief Minister's Relief Fund to aid the January 4 earthquake victims.
