Kick-off in Bodoland
Once marked by unrest,
Bodoland is now gaining
national attention for
something truly inspiring—
Football. The Bodoland
CEM Cup has turned into a
celebration of talent, unity,
and opportunity, drawing
thousands of young
players to the field. As the
Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi noted, this
football wave reflects a
powerful shift in the region’s
identity. In this feature,
four famous footballers
hailing from BTR—Hali
Charan Narzary, Durga
Boro, Apurna Narzary, and
Manbir Basumatari—share
how Bodoland is kicking
off a new chapter in India’s
sporting story.
