Around 80 wrestlers from J&K and other North Indian states are going to contest for different bouts in this day-long event, a handout issued here today said.
“The notable feature of this dangal is that it is being conducted regularly at Panthal for the last 108 years on the eve of Maker Sankranti,” Shiv Kumar Sharma told SAN.
The winner of the main bout would be rewarded with a cash prize of Rs 11,000 in addition to `Silver Gurj and Patta’.
