Jaishankar inaugurates gymnastic hall in Rajpipla
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar inaugurated the gymnastic hall at Chhotubhai Purani Sports Campus on Tuesday, April 15 in Rajpipla, Gujarat.
"I came here about two years ago, and I felt that this is a very old organization, and its name is famous. People came to me and said that if you improve the facilities, then the children's and public response will increase," Union Minister of External Affairs S. Jaishankar told ANI.
"You see what facilities have been created, and the result you see is that even the small children come here. Sports start from a very young age. And what you see is that girl on the trampoline who is there, or these other people are doing their thing," he added.
He emphasized the importance of supporting natural sporting talent from the grassroots level, particularly focusing on the natural talent found in tribal communities.
He also said that the Khelo India Fit India initiative is a crucial step in identifying and supporting these talents, providing opportunities for them to emerge and showcase their abilities. He added that the positive results of this initiative are evident in the increased opportunities for children to do so.
"So you know that Khelo India Fit India is our effort. This is the effort of the Modi government to enhance our sporting talent in India. Sporting talent is made from the grassroots and we have come to a place where there is natural talent. Here you know that Tribal people are very naturally fit. One of their abilities is that I would say more than capability, that's talent. And believe in how to make them emerge, how to give them opportunities, so I think this is a small example of how I see what I see and feel very good about. If you do something now, the result is visible immediately when you see that an opportunity is given in someone's life or for any child to reveal their talent,"
The Central Government's Khelo India Games initiative has become a transformative force in fostering a strong sporting culture across the nation. The Khelo India programme has been introduced to revive the sports culture in India at the grassroots level by building a strong framework for all sports played in our country and establishing India as a great sporting nation.
