The J&K Forest fans cheered their team to victory in the tie-breaker and gave them a standing ovation at the end as they defeated the rivals by four goals to two (4-2).
Minister for Technical Education, Information Technology and Youth Services and Sports, Imran Raza Ansari was the chief guest on the valedictory function, who distributed prizes among the winners and runner-up teams.
