The Government of India is set to begin a new phase of the Khelo India Scheme, focusing on upgrading sports infrastructure and enhancing the training of coaches. The scheme has been instrumental in providing athletes with better facilities and support, but the need to scale up remains crucial as India targets higher performance in international competitions.
Officials involved in the scheme have highlighted plans to improve existing sporting venues and establish new ones with modern amenities. Alongside infrastructure, there is a concerted effort to train coaches more comprehensively, ensuring athletes receive proper guidance and development.
The government’s vision under this new phase is to create a robust ecosystem that nurtures sporting talent across the country, enabling India to secure a stronger position on the global sports stage. Emphasis will also be placed on sustainable athlete development through continuous support and exposure.
