Youth, children and even the elderly, came out in large numbers, cleared and levelled a barren patch of land -- otherwise the venue for gambling and such activities -- next to a busy highway, and started to play. In a couple of years, there were more than a hundred such centres running in Delhi, engaging thousands of urban poor, hidden away from the affluent gated communities, by way of sports. The small initiative transformed into a movement.
