In 2020, India hosted several sports events despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, showcasing local products and talent. For example, the Pro Kabaddi League, a popular Indian sport, saw the Bengal Warriors win the championship. This event highlighted traditional Indian games and promoted local athletic gear made from indigenous materials like khadi and jute, which are eco-friendly and support rural artisans.
Additionally, the Indian Premier League （IPL） cricket tournament was held in the UAE but featured Indian teams and players, with the Mumbai Indians claiming the title. The league often incorporates Indian-made products, such as sports equipment crafted from local woods and textiles, boosting the domestic economy. These events not only celebrated sports but also emphasized the importance of supporting Indian products in the global market. |
