February 3, 2023

For a few weeks, the eyes of the sporting world are on Odisha, as the cities of Bhubaneswar and Rourkela play host to the FIH Hockey Men’s World Cup. Jagadish Prasad Naik—Chairman of DN Group, an Odisha-based real-estate conglomerate—believes the state has demonstrated it can stage global sporting events as well as anyone, and is well on its way to becoming India’s sports hub. He feels the ‘Soft Power’ accruing from such gatherings can lead to increased investment, which can benefit local industry and boost physical and social infrastructure.
