Hailing From Gujarat’s 'Mini Africa', Judoka Shahin Ready For Bigger Challenges After KIYG Glory
Khelo India Youth Games: One would mistakenly count Shahin Darjada, seated with cornrows decorated with beads on her head, as some sports fan enjoying an outing at the indoor hall of the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium where the judo competitions of the ongoing Khelo India Youth Games (KIYG) are being held.
Hailing from Jambur village, popularly known as the 'Mini Africa' of Gujarat, Shahin walked away with a gold medal in 57kg category with a convincing win over Himachal Pradesh’s Rupanshi in the final.
There are a couple of more players hailing from the region, situated around 20km from Gir, and has served as a home to Siddi community, which is of African origin.
