Sharing the joy of Christmas

Similar to what we did last year, we had a Christmas celebration just for the villages around NJH. 

Although the event was of a much lesser magnitude than last year, we had about 1000 people come in for the food. Snaps from the event . . .

To have a better idea, maybe the below snaps would help . . . 

Many people do not know about Jharkhand's contribution to Indian hockey . . . But the fact remains that many a international player came out of such fields . . . More snaps of the village hockey field . . . 

I wish that more players come up from such fields such that India will regain it's lost glory in hockey.
