One fine morning I visited
Potka, a little hamlet town near Jamshedpur, its claim to fame a school that was
trained tribal girls archery.

5 of the girls from this
school had made it to the national archery team, help from ISWP a company in
Jamshedpur who have adopted this school as a CSR initiative and had
started to make a huge difference in the school and lives of the girls.
Our friend Ujagar Singh was
of the opinion what it was something about the soil something about the girls
and what they had in there genes that made them such good archers, I have
always wondered if these tribal been doing archery all there life they must
have it encoded in there genes and this school girls were proof of my belief .

We went into a classroom and interacting
with the girls who came from poor family (this Is a residential school) they
bright eyed and bushy tailed look on the face was such a welcome sight
There is no doubt these girls
with a little bit of luck will go on to do great things-
needless to say I too did give the bow a twang
