GUWAHATI: From the archery range to NH-31 and back to the range again, life has come full circle for Buli Basumatary . Very soon, I became a mother of two and could not leave them to go back to the archery range. The SAI-trained national women's archery champion was forced by injury and poverty to put her glory days behind her, selling oranges for a living for four years. "About four years ago, I decided to put together a small amount and started selling oranges on the roadside at NH-31. I don't have to sell oranges anymore," an elated Buli, travelling by bus to her home at Samtheibari in Chirang district, told TOI.
