INDOMITABLE SPIRIT. UNWAVERING FOCUS.
The Baghrol (Fishing Cat) — West Bengal's semi-aquatic State Animal
The Baghrol (also known as Mechi Biral), West Bengal's unique and resilient semi-aquatic State Animal, serves as the official mascot for the Inter-IIT Sports Meet, deeply embodying the event's tagline: “Indomitable spirit, unwavering focus!”
As a rugged wildcat that fearlessly dives into harsh wetland environments to survive, its indomitable spirit mirrors the physical grit, endurance, and relentless drive of the collegiate athletes competing for the General Championship.
The Baghrol's unwavering focus as an ambush predator parallels the intense mental fortitude required for athletic triumph — echoing IIT Kharagpur's core motto of disciplined action, Yogah Karmasu Kaushalam.
