New Delhi, Jun 15 (UNI) Former India football captain Gouramangi Singh has discovered a new passion for organic farming, which is keeping him physically and mentally fresh during the coronavirus enforced lockdown.
Currently with his family in Imphal due to the prevailing coronavirus outbreak and subsequent lockdown, Gouramangi stated that maintaining his kitchen garden and growing vegetables has been a 'positive' way to spend time for him.
"We have a small patch of land, less than an acre. It is some walking distance from our house. We had a kitchen garden there for the last two years and over the lockdown period, my siblings and I have tried to expand it and grow different varieties of vegetables - such as chillies, turmeric, ginger, squash, corn, karela (bitter gourd), pumpkin, lauki (bottle guard)," Gouramangi told www.the-aiff.com.
