According to Sanoj Mahato, people around me were telling me that this championship is not under your control. There is only one thing you can do and that is to approach the temple and beg. This is what you should do. You will earn good money by begging. Hearing such things broke my heart, but I had also decided not to beg but to make a mark myself.
Sanoj Mahato further said that when I went to Ranchi to watch a match in 2019, throwing ball started playing. After watching the match I felt I could do this. A coach present at that time told me that if you want to play, you can play. You must play. From that day I started practicing throw ball.
He became paralyzed at the age of 3.

The doctor gave an injection and then the fever increased further. Then both my legs started to shrink slowly. Many treatments were done, but there was no cure. There was also shortage of money due to which the right treatment could not be provided at the right time.

I can perform better if I get some help. . And your treatment too. If you also want to help Sanoj, you can contact on mobile number 8210923179.
