Global Indian Pravasi Kabaddi League: The highly-anticipated Global Indian Pravasi Kabaddi League (GI-PKL) unveiled its Championship Trophy in a ceremony held here on Sunday, with the GI-PKL scheduled to begin on April 18 in Gurugram. The league has already garnered global attention with participation from teams representing countries like Egypt, Kenya, Argentina, Germany, England, Norway, and Poland.

The special guest D. Suresh, IAS, Principal Secretary, Industries & Commerce, Government of Haryana, and Deepak Hooda, former Indian kabaddi team captain, unveiled the Championship Trophy alongside Holistic International Pravasi Sports Association (HIPSA) president Kanthi D. Suresh.

Speaking at the GI-PKL trophy launch, D. Suresh said, "Kabaddi is an integral part of India's sporting heritage, and it's heartening to see a global platform like GI-PKL take shape in Haryana. This initiative will not only provide a stage for international athletes but also boost Kabaddi's recognition as a potential Olympic sport."
