On 29 August, the Indian nation celebrates The National Sports Day to mark the birth anniversary of Major Chand, one of the greatest field hockey player in world history. The idea behind its celebration is to lay emphasis on the importance of sports and physical activities and to honor Major Dhyan Chand's legacy in Indian hockey.

His career spanned from 1926 to 1948, when he played 185 matches for India scoring over 400 goals.

Sports organizations like Indian Football and Royal Challengers Bengaluru are celebrating our cricketing heroes by highlighting legends such as Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Sachin Tendulkar. 

Their posts pay tribute to these icons’ monumental contributions and enduring impact on the world of sports.
