While extending his best wishes to the team members, the Governor said that the interest towards sports has increased in the country and Prime Minister Narendra Modi also encourages sports from every platform from time to time. “Sports talents are coming to the fore at the village level by organizing ‘Khelo India’ and MP sports competition”, said the Governor.

The Khelo India aims at improving India’s sports culture at the grass-root level through organized talent identification, structured sporting competitions and infrastructure development, said the Governor. He expressed hope that these players would definitely come back after winning medals and will bring laurels to the country and the State as well.
