Imphal, March 06 2024:
Assam Rifles distributed wushu training kits to underprivileged children in Bishnupur district on Tuesday.
According to PRO IGAR (S), the distribution programme was conceptualised as part of Operation Sadbhavna for the financial year 2023-24 with the sole focus on encouraging talented children from humble backgrounds to pick up wushu, which has brought laurels to the state of Manipur in the recent past.
The distribution of wushu training kits will also ensure safety while playing the sport and substantially reduce the number of injuries associated with the contact sport.
Around 150 children from in and around Bishnupur district would directly benefit from this initiative.
The crucial step highlights the commitment of the Assam Rifles towards providing best possible facilities and guidance with the 'Fit India' vision of our country in mind thus enabling budding talent to flourish and pursue their dream career, the PRO added.
