I don't know how many games. I don't know the rules of Dhapsa game either.  Phanibhushan Mukherjee, a 60-year-old resident of Burdwan, said, "Once upon a time, these games were very popular.  Along with this, the game of thief-police or touching the old woman was also a daily companion. Apart from these, many people used to play Baghbandi sitting in Chandimandap.

Now these scenes seem illusory.  Sports are disappearing from our lives due to the touch of modernity.  I played dangs.  There is a possibility of getting injured in the game of dangs, but the fun of playing dangs was different. Now, of course, that scene is not commonly seen.  Everyone is busy. Why are games like this getting lost?  Is it just a touch of modernity? In this case, it is said that children are getting accustomed to mobile or computer from a very young age.

In the world of internet, their childhood is getting lost.  And its effect is also seen in their lives.  They are getting addicted to games like Marankhela Blue Whale when they are a little older.  Not only this, if you want to play these folk games, you have to play with many people together.

Sangeeta Tarafdar, a housewife from Burdwan, said, "This problem needs to be solved from home and on behalf of the school.  This mentality will change if there is a system of regular play in schools too. '
