Rajgangpur: Aimed at unleashing the sport’s potential in youth, Dalmia Bharat Foundation (DBF), the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) arm of Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Ltd (DCBL) presented sporting gear including hockey sticks, jerseys, and cleats to 100 emerging hockey leaders of Keshramal Grampanchyat, Sundargarh district, Odisha. Earlier, DCBL had also supported Abhishek Shukla, a specially-abled international cricketer from Rajgangpur by providing him sports equipment.
“As a business, we continue to lead the East’s cement market and we attribute our growth and regional progress to the communities within which we operate in and are committed to. In continuation of our support and social responsibilities, we are creating varied sports avenues for our local youth to participate, train and excel in,” said Chetan Shrivastav, Executive Director, DCBL and Unit Head – Rajgangpur. “We are confident that, by fostering a sports culture that involves a shared purpose and providing the necessary sporting requirements, we will be able to encourage and positively empower our talented youth athletes across Rajgangpur.”
DCBL has also renovated a playground at Rumabahal and Katang village Football tournaments are organised annually. This is in addition to contributing sports gear to budding talent and athletes in neighbouring communities. Aditya Sarangi, a student of Dalmia Vidya Mandir, is one such example. He won a Gold medal in Judo at State Level Competition and he is further selected for the national championship.
