Centre Will Work With State Government To Strengthen Kerala’s Sporting Ecosystem: SAI
SAI Deputy Director Varsha Sabale: The Government of India is set to give a major push to the Khelo India programme, with the revised scheme expected to open up significantly greater opportunities for Kerala to identify sporting talent and develop athletes for national and international competition.
Kerala has the potential to make a significant contribution to India’s medal tally at the Olympics and Commonwealth Games, particularly in canoeing, kayaking, rowing and fencing, said Dr N. Sarath Chandra Yadav, Regional Director, Sports Authority of India (SAI) Thiruvananthapuram, here on Wednesday.
He said the Centre would work alongside the State Government to strengthen Kerala’s sporting ecosystem, with greater emphasis on identifying talent at the grassroots and providing athletes with sustained support.
