Abstract

It is indeed a difficult task to bring a sport into consideration in a country in which the world of sports is dominated by cricket but with remarkable marketing strategy, everything is possible. Kabaddi, a rural sport which developed in Indian subcontinent around 4000 years ago but the sport lost its popularity. But due to massive efforts and strategies, it has again risen up to unimaginable heights and have somewhat got close to the level of cricket. This study is likely to reveal deficiencies in the infrastructure required for the promotion of Kabaddi statutory laws, or the absence of laws. In general, this study will provide principles for future development in order to promote Kabaddi more effectively. In 2013, Star India and Mashal Sports came up with an idea of Pro Kabaddi League which was similar to Indian Premier League which gave the sport an atmosphere to bloom again.  The PKL was a huge success for both the game and its promoters, as it was loved and followed by millions of people across the country. The study will aid in comparing the game's current standards to the performance of previous years, which may aid in determining the game's future and also  it will serve as a resource for physical education teachers, coaches, and professional students in the field.
