Haryana’s Sporting Revolution: Rs 45 Lakh Boost for Rural Athletes
Haryana is rapidly emerging as a sporting powerhouse, nurturing national and international athletes from its heartland. The state government’s commitment to grassroots development is evident in a recent initiative.
On August 4, 2025, sports equipment worth Rs 45 lakh was distributed across 111 villages in Ladwa. This move aims to engage youth in sports and combat the menace of drug abuse.
The initiative is a key part of Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar’s vision. He aims to significantly upgrade sports infrastructure across the state.
This focus on rural talent is expected to unearth hidden sporting gems, potentially enriching India’s medal tally in international competitions. The success of this program will serve as a model for other states grappling with similar challenges.
