How to play Kushti – Indian Wrestling
It is a game played in an area called Akhada filled with clay or ‘Mitti’ which represents mother earth and they pay respect to it because this is their training ground, their stadium, and their life is dedicated to it.

You can’t kick or punch your opponent but you can use body locks, throws, submission holds, pins, etc.

My Thoughts
To be honest, I was not into wrestling, I have watched WWE but never watched any Indian-style wrestling match, but while writing about it, I searched and learned how strictly they follow their diet and training. They give their whole life to it practicing for hours and days.
Still, not many of them get any attention. Some of them are having financial issues even though they played for our country which was the saddest thing I read about them.
We must give attention to different sports as they need them more than the sports which are well known by everyone.
So, I guess that’s all for today. If you enjoy reading it then comment down below and leave your suggestions and any other topics that I should write about in the comments.
Don’t just read alone share it with others in this way everybody will enjoy it. I will be back soon with another game or related info. Till then…
