Strike, pocket, win!

Jogeshwari - Local resident Prashant More has done the city proud by winning the world carrom championship which was held in England recently. He started playing the indoor sport when he was 9 years old. “I am thankful to my parents who supported me through thick and thin. Whenever I used to return home from school, my mother would keep the carrom board ready. My father Suryakant More is also a national level carrom player who taught me the nuances of carrom and I owe my win to them,” says Prashant. Both Prashant and his father are employed by the Reserve Bank of India.
