| Video Discription | Throwing arrows are highly popular among rural communities in Meghalaya state in India. Children and adults practice and compete shooting arrows at tiny cylindrical targets. It is also a social tradition which provides a joyful interaction. In Meghalaya, the state lottery system called "Teer" is based on Archery - "Siat Khnam". Everyday, men from Shillong's archery clubs gather for a shooting event. Hundreds of arrows are shot towards a large cylindrical target, while spectators and betting agents wait anxiously for the results. Numerous small betting booths are scattered all over the state where people place bets - a number between zero and 99. After the shooting is over, arrows that hit the target are counted, and the last two digits of the sum is the winning number... Footage taken on March 2016 IkqFLW-mMEo |
