Education And Sports Ministry Must Work Together For India To Become A Sporting Nation: Bhaichung Bhutia
Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue: Former India captain Bhaichung Bhutia lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was in attendance at the Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue and National Youth Festival, for the support and attention he has shown on Sports. The football great believes the Sports and Education Ministries need to work hand in hand, for the country to truly develop as a sporting nation.
“It is a great initiative taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Sports Ministry and I hope it is the start of India becoming a sporting nation. My suggestion is that the Ministry of Sports and the Ministry of Education will have to work together for India to become a sporting nation.
“Our education policy needs to be changed to be a more sports-friendly curriculum. Today our education system is more academic based, pressuring kids to become engineers, doctors, and bureaucrats. We need to make certain changes to bring equal opportunity for sports so that we can support the talented kids to become future sporting heroes,” Bhaichung told IANS.
