A first in kabaddi: Players get Rs 1 crore health, injury and accident cover, valid worldwide

One match, one leg injury and the career of a kabaddi player from Phulanwal village in Ludhiana was over. Inderjit Singh Sekhon had come a long way by then. He played for his village team, then for the Punjab State Electricity Board, and later in international matches, including a famous one against Pakistan in the 1990s. Then, in one match, he injured his leg and never played again.
