खेल पत्रकारिता के 100 वर्ष

Assam Assembly Speaker Biswajit Daimary inaugurated a year-long celebration programme of 100 years of sports journalism in Assam. The programme is being celebrated in the State under the aegis of the Assam Sports Journalists’ Association. 

The first ever sports report in Assam was published on July 1, 1923 in a daily called Asomiya published from Dibrugarh. 

Over 100 working and former sports journalists of the State were honoured in the presence of Asian Games medallist Joydeep Das, Monalisa Barua Mehta, the first woman recipient of the Arjuna Award from the North East, Olympian Anuradha Biswal and former national table tennis champion Kamlesh Mehta, et al. 

The Assam Assembly Speaker spoke of the importance of journalism in the making of a sportsperson. This was echoed by other speakers, including Kamlesh, who recounted his first media coverage, and the urge in him thereafter to do better.

Daimary spoke on the importance of indigenous games and the responsibility of the media in highlighting those.
