Kalinga boys lift U-14 Rugby World Cup

BANGALORE: Young tribal boys from Orissa have accomplished the almost impossible task of lifting the Under-14 World Rugby Cup in England on Saturday.

Students of the Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences won the Under-14 International School Rugby Tournament held at London’s Scottish Rugby Club. India defeated South Africa by a margin 19-5.

The institute is managed by the Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology University and is home to 5,000 tribal children, who receive free education, boarding and lodging facilities along with other basic amenities.
