Sports helps one maintain mental, physical health, says judge after inaugurating three-day annual police meet

Sports helps in maintaining one’s physical and mental health irrespective of one’s age group, Principal District and Sessions Judge K.G. Shanthi has said.

Inaugurating the three-day annual Police Sports Meet organised by the Hubballi Dharwad Police Commissionerate at CAR Grounds in Hubballi on Wednesday, Ms. Shanthi said that a policeman’s work is stressful and such sports events help him destress a bit.

“To destress, engaging in regular exercise is very important. If one has to discharge duties actively, daily involvement in sports is crucial. Sports helps one inculcate discipline and patience and also to engage in constructive thinking,” she said.
