Divyang throw ball player Mahima appeals for help
Mahima Oraon, a national level disabled throw ball player from Ranchi, has been selected in the Indian women’s mercury throw ball team for the international championship to be held in Malaysia. Players will have to bear their own expenses for participating in the championship. It costs 66,000 per player to go to Malaysia, but Mahima does not have that much money. For this, he has appealed to the people to help.
Before throw ball, Mahima has also won bronze medal for Jharkhand in volleyball. For practice, she first walks five kilometers from her village Sodag, then changes two-three autos and comes to Morabadi Stadium. In the same year, women have won the gold medal in the international competition of throw ball. Mahima told that in 2018, she met Mukesh Kanchan of Jharkhand Paralympic Association and the spirit of sports awakened in me, after which I went to Morhabadi and practiced once a week. Its better results started coming out.
