The Rangers 6th National Butthan Championship comprising 150 participants starts at the Shaheed Tajuddin Ahmed Indoor Stadium, Paltan today.
This is the first time that the national event of Butthan will be held in Dhaka and the officials of the Butthan federation hopes to cash in from the occassion. “It is very unfortunate that Butthan, being the own martial art and self defence form of the sub-continent is a forgotten aspect, we are trying to revive the tradition, we are also working towards international recognition,” said MAK Yuree, the general secretary and the Super Human of Discovery Channel who broke three baseball bats with a kick.
Rangers Security and Training Services general manager Squadron Leader (retd) M Obaidur Rahman was also present during the programme.
