उत्तर
My favorite sport – Gilli Danda
It is an amateur sport. The game is played with two sticks; one large called danda and the other one-fourth of the size of large stick called Gilli with tapered ends. The players are divided into two teams to play this game, the hitter team, and the opponent team. The danda is used to flick the short gilli into the air and hit again to make it travel to a maximum distance. In case the hitter is unable to flick the Gilli. their turn gets over after three chances. The hitter’s score is measured by the distance from the place where he hit the Gilli while it is up in the air. If the opposing team catches the Gilli, then the hitter ends him.
