\u201cMy conversation with Mirabai, Annu Rani and Abha convinces me that our athletes have received the best possible support in their preparation for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Mirabai Chanu highlighted the immense support from the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, particularly in being able to secure the services of world-renowned sports scientist Dr. Aaron Horschig from St. Louis in the United States of America while Annu Rani spoke glowingly about being able to train for an extended period of time at European bases.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Mandaviya also interacted with other athletes enrolled in the National Centre of Excellence here and some prominent coaches. He asked them for suggestions on reducing the drop-out rates from competitive sports. \u201cYou are getting the needed support. However, many of those who started with you, but didn't win medals get left behind. What can we do for them?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
He also shared that in keeping with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's wish for the overall development of Sports, the government would encourage the identification and nurturing of grassroots talent.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Sports Minister also took a review of NSNIS and visited the various fields of play, sports science facilities and the new infrastructure project sites. He was also pleased with the progress of the High-Performance Centre for Sports Science and the kitchen and dining.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
