On the second day of the statewide sports festival that began with National Sports Day, an exciting match was played at TT Nagar Stadium, Bhopal, between the women\u2019s football teams of Vicharpur village in Shahdol district, known as \u2018Mini Brazil\u2019, and Sardarpur village in Dhar district. Cooperation, Sports and Youth Welfare Minister Vishvas Kailash Sarang started the match. In his address he said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had inspired the whole country by describing Vicharpur village as \u201cMini Brazil\u201d in his Mann Ki Baat programme. He said it was a matter of both pride and responsibility to encourage sports at the grassroots and help realise players\u2019 dreams. Minister Sarang said the atmosphere for football in both Vicharpur and Sardarpur was very positive, with a special attachment to sport visible in every household. He assured that the Sports and Youth Welfare Department would draw inspiration from these villages and take concrete steps to expand and strengthen football in the state.<\/p>\n
