600 wrestlers in Rajasthan to receive 1,100 kg of pure desi ghee

The Rajasthan State Wrestling Association has launched a significant initiative to help the state's wrestlers achieve success at the international level. According to a News18 report, the association has begun distributing 1,100 kilograms of pure cow ghee to more than 600 wrestlers across the state. The main objective of this campaign is to improve the diet of the wrestlers and make them more powerful, so that they can bring glory to Rajasthan at the national and global levels, just like the wrestlers from Haryana. This distribution of ghee is being carried out in collaboration with Saras Dairy.

This initiative was showcased during the 'Chambal Rajasthan Kesari' wrestling dangal held at the 133rd National Dussehra Fair in Kota. Here, wrestlers were provided with ghee in 1 kg and 5 kg packets. The association believes that wrestling is a sport of strength and stamina; therefore, a balanced diet is essential along with daily practice. Through this initiative, wrestlers are being provided not only with ghee but also with other necessary facilities.

Bhilwara wrestler Aaru Choudhary, while speaking to News18, stated that ghee is indispensable for wrestlers. It plays an important role in body building and gaining the strength required for the sport. Supporting this, female wrestler Aarti mentioned that strength and power are the most important aspects in wrestling, and ghee provides both. It is very important for the body to be strong to fight against an opponent.

Rajasthan State Wrestling Association President Rajiv Datta said that the association's priority is to attract more youth towards wrestling and build a strong foundation for the sport in the state. He added that the appeal of any sport depends on its prize money and the facilities provided to the players. Therefore, wrestlers are being given not only ghee but also shoes, kits, water bottles, and other sports equipment. Additionally, to avoid the fatigue of long journeys and ensure proper rest before matches, players are now being provided with air travel facilities to reach competitions.

The association's aim is to help Rajasthan's young wrestlers achieve success at the national and international levels. Along with this, special attention is being given to encouraging women in wrestling and providing financial support to talented players. Players who win national and international medals for India will be given special assistance for their diet and sports requirements.

A social message has also been conveyed through this dangal. Under the theme 'Kick the Drugs, Pick the Sports', youth have been encouraged to stay away from drugs and adopt sports. The association believes that with proper nutrition and encouragement, the state's wrestlers will certainly perform at their best.

The Rajasthan State Wrestling Association is the main body governing the sport of wrestling in Rajasthan. This organization has been responsible for the development of wrestling, training of players, and organizing various competitions in the state. In the past as well, various programs have been organized by this organization to encourage wrestlers at the local level, with the aim of finding talented players from rural areas and bringing them into the mainstream.
