“Before 2014, sports and sportspersons were not a priority for governments. Due to the lack of international-level infrastructure, athletes often felt neglected. Since 2014, initiatives such as Khelo India, Fit India and MP Sports Competitions have transformed the sports ecosystem and extended opportunities to villages,” he said while inaugurating the Eastern Zone Inter-University Women’s Basketball Championship at Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gorakhpur University.
