Students of seven schools participated in the event.
Officiating Commandant 50 Battalion BSF V.K. Ojha told ANI, "A competition of badminton was organised for two days, and before that also, we have organised a volleyball competition. We have received a positive response. We wanted to reach to the people of rural areas through this competition. The children are very talented."
