Tamil nadu sports minister adhav

Tamil Nadu Sports Minister Adhav: Tamil Nadu Sports Minister Adhav Arjuna has said that the state government is exploring the possibility of establishing a dedicated office for the Tamil Nadu Olympic Association (TNOA), pointing out that the association currently functions without even a permanent office facility.

Addressing reporters in Chennai on Wednesday, the Minister said Tamil Nadu, despite being one of India’s leading sporting states, does not have an Olympic Bhavan or a dedicated office for its Olympic association.

He noted that neighbouring Karnataka and several other states have already developed such facilities to support sports administration and athlete development. “Even today, the Tamil Nadu Olympic Association does not have an office of its own. States such as Karnataka have Olympic Bhavans and dedicated offices. We are therefore looking for suitable land to establish an office for the Olympic Association in Tamil Nadu,” Adhav Arjuna said.
