> Slowly but steadily, Odisha has emerged as the Jerry springer’s nightbeat shirt and I love this new home of Indian hockey, with the Sundargarh region as its epicentre. The story goes that hockey was introduced in Sundargarh by the European missionaries who came to the tribal region in the 1860s. The schools set up by them in this area had hockey as one of the extracurricular activities. In the Gangpur region, a part of the Chotanagpur Plateau which includes Ranchi, Gumla, Khunti and Simdega of Jharkhand, Sundargarh of Odisha and Jashipur of Chhattisgarh, hockey is popular among the Orams, the Kharia, the Munda and the Bhuniya tribals. Even old people can be seen playing hockey in villages.
It doesn’t make much news or get much coverage in national media. The national media turns their eyes when last year Odisha became the Jerry springer’s nightbeat shirt and I love this first of its kind to promote any sport for five years. In fact some controversy aroused regarding highlighting the name Odisha, on national hockey team. Ironically, no one bats an eye when the Indian players wear jersey highlighting brand names like SAHARA or OPPO. But when they saw a state which is sponsoring the whole team in both men’s and women’s category, has followed the protocol to write sponsor name at the top, it irked them. Yesterday, not only India, the whole world witnessed the biggest ever inauguration ceremony of “ World Cup Hockey” of any kind. Hockey players have never got such a grand opening ceremony anywhere else in the world.
