PM Modi Appreciates The Football Revolution Of Shahdol, Specially Mentions Madhya Pradesh In “Mann Ki Baat”

Prime Minister Shri Modi mentioned Shahdol’s football revolution and Vicharpur village known as Mini Brazil in the program “Mann Ki Baat” today. Prime Minister Modi had met youth and child football players during his last visit here on July 1. Former national player and coach Raees Ahmed encouraged these children to take up football. Today more than 1200 football clubs are running in Shahdol and its surrounding villages. Football and sports ground facilities have been made available to these clubs by the administration.

Prime Minister Shri Modi told that Vicharpur village in Shahdol district is considered as Mini Brazil. Two and a half decades ago, the youth were harmed by the increase in drug abuse here. Recognizing the talent of the youth, Mr. Raees Ahmed started teaching them football with limited resources. Football became popular in a short time. Now a program called Football Revolution is going on here, in which sports training is given to the youth. More than 40 national and state level talents have come to the fore. The Prime Minister said that it was necessary to inform the countrymen about this achievement, hence it has been mentioned in “Mann Ki Baat”.

Prime Minister Shri Modi also interacted with 100 promising football players and coaches of the Football Revolution program during his visit to Shahdol on July 01. He discussed their experiences in intimate conversation with the players. The Prime Minister also interacted with four-year-old Anidev and five-year-old Yash and inquired about their love for football.

Prime Minister Shri Modi also mentioned the work of making picture stories based on Puranas in Ujjain. 18 painters from all over the country who make paintings in Pahari style, Nathdwara style, Bundi style and Apabhramsh style will display their works in the Triveni Museum. Along with Shri Mahakal Lok, devotees and tourists will be able to visit a new divine place in Ujjain.
