کبڐي kabaḍḍī :
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?).
