Pattambi: Vishnu, who was a student of Sree Neelakanta Government Sanskrit College in Pattabi, had recently died after being hit by a train. He was one of the 44 students who got through the first round of selections to the college football team. His close friends who knew about Vishnu’s dream to become a famous football player were shocked by the news of his untimely demise.
The college football team decided to pay homage to the undying memories of their friend when they were playing a match for the selection trials. Meanwhile, Riyas Mukkoli, the chairman of Charka organisation had realised their wish and offered to sponsor the jersey that honoured Vishnu’s memories.
Before the team entered the ground for the trials match, 44 players were given blue coloured jerseys with the name Vishnu written on the back. This incredible display of love for their friend was also an extremely emotional moment.
The jerseys were distributed to the players by Charka chairman Riyas Mukkoli. The event was organised by Ameen Rashid, Haneefa Pattambi, Shafi Maruthoor, MK Mushtaq, Shahid Pattambi, Shakeer Kodaloor, Mansoor Palathingal, KU Hamsa, Fathima Fida and Shabeer.
