Essay Introduction:
Kabbadi is a national game. Village people enjoy it very much like Gulli danda, it is not all costly. People generally-prefer Kabaddi to Gulli danda, because it is less risky than Gulli danda. I am very fond of this game. So I never miss an opportunity of watching a Kabbadi match.
