کبڐي kabaḍḍī H s. f. A game among boys, who divide themselves into two parties; one of which takes its station on one side of a line or ridge, called pālā, made on the ground, and the other on the other. One boy, shouting kabaḍḍī ka- baḍḍī, passes this line, and endeavours to touch one of those on the opposite side. If he is able to do this, and to return to his own party, the boy that was so touched is supposed to be slain; that is, he retires from the game. But if the boy who made the assault be seized and unable to return, he dies, or retires in the same manner. The assault is thus made from the two sides alternately, and that party is victo- rious of which some remain after all their oppo- nents are slain. (Prison bars?).
