"This is a great initiative by the Siliguri Metropolitan Police and the Modi public school to have this fun run," Darsheel told ANI.
He said that a fitness fun run is a requirement as everyone including him got lazy after the pandemic. "It is very exciting to see children participating in the marathon," he added.
Commenced from 'Uttarayon', the marathon will be a run of 1.5 km, 3 km, and 5 km in three divisions.
Students from different schools in Siliguri participated in this marathon race.
