Janvi Kumari, a young footballer from Begusarai, has earned a place in the Bihar junior women's football squad after regular training at Yamuna Bhagwat Stadium.
Janvi Kumari, the daughter of a daily‑wage labourer from Begusarai, has been named in the Bihar junior women’s football team. Despite limited resources, she has honed her skills on the grass of Yamuna Bhagwat Stadium, where she trains regularly with a group of aspiring players.
Her selection reflects both personal determination and the growing interest in women’s football across the state. Coaches highlighted her tactical awareness, speed and commitment during recent trials, noting that she stood out among a competitive pool of candidates.
