KIYG 2025: Hosts Bihar Pick Up Historic Gold Medals As Manipur Dominate In Thang-Ta
Khelo India Youth Games: Manipur’s martial art Thang-Ta, one of the five indigenous sports contested at Khelo India Youth Games (KIYG) 2025, concluded on Wednesday at Gaya’s Bihar Institute of Public Administration and Rural Development (BIPARD). Host Bihar made history by bagging their first gold medals, while Manipur had the biggest haul with three gold medals.
The Government of India, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is determined to popularise indigenous sports like Thang-Ta, Mallakhamb, Gatka, Kalarippayattu, and Yogasana. People running these sports all across the country are looking to get a berth for their respective sports in the 2036 Olympics, which India intends to host for the first time in its history.
As far as Thang-Ta is concerned, Huidrom Premkumar has been the lone force in the development and growth of the sport. Now 70, Premkumar shed light on the Thang-Ta journey.
