On the instructions of Chief Minister Hemant Soren, the Simdega district administration has installed a Smart TV at the house of Olympian hockey player Salima Tete. Along with this, a set top box has also been installed to see Salima playing live. District Sports Officer Tushar Roy informed that a 43-inch Smart 4K TV has been installed at Salima's house. It may be known that the problem of Salima's family members due to non-availability of TV was brought to the notice of the Chief Minister. After that, showing sensitivity, the CM directed the district administration to take immediate action. The Indian women's hockey team also includes Salima Tete, daughter of Jharkhand. Team India performed better in the Tokyo Olympics, defeating the Australian team 1-0 and reached the semi-finals. Salima's semi-final match was watched by her family members and villagers on the TV set by the government.
Jharkhand's daughter Salima Tete struggled, sweated in the field and made her place in the Indian women's hockey team at the Olympics. Representing the country, she also performed amazingly with a stick in the field, but Salima's family and villagers were unable to see Salima playing in Tokyo Olympics due to lack of TV. As soon as this came to the notice of the Chief Minister, Deputy Commissioner, Simdega, Sushant Gaurav was directed to solve the problem.
Taking immediate initiative, the DC directed District Sports Officer Tushar Roy to install a TV at Salima Tete's house before the semi-final match. The instructions were implemented and Salima's family members and villagers were also able to watch the semi-final match live on TV.
The Simdega DC said that it is a matter of pride for the State and the district that Salima is included in the Indian women's hockey team. This will inspire sports lovers. District Sports Officer Tushar Roy informed that during the TV installation at the house of Indian hockey player Salima Tete, Secretary, District Hockey, Manoj Kombegi was also present.
