STATE Public Works Department Minister Rakesh Singh said said Prime Minister Narendra Modi imagined a platform in every field where talent can be showcased, recognised and rewarded. He said today’s youth will prove to be a milestone in building a developed India. He was addressing the closing ceremony of Sansad Khel Mahotsav at Ranital Stadium on Thursday. Addressing the players and citizens, the PWD Minister further said there was a time when India felt proud if any Asian country won a medal at the international level. “Today, India is creating its own sporting history.

 

Our athletes are winning medals, earning respect and recognition and the government is also taking responsibility for their livelihood,” he said. Minister Singh urged players to give their best performance and work towards a better future, adding that Prime Minister Modi has decided to make India a developed nation by 2047, with sports playing a key role in that journey. He expressed confidence that such sporting events would continue in the future and congratulated Memeber of Parliament Ashish Dubey for successfully organising the Khel Mahotsav.

 

Member of Parliament Ashish Dubey said the Mahotsav began on August 29 at the village, ward and block levels before reaching the district level, culminating in the closing ceremony. Remembering former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee on his birth centenary, Dubey described him as a great source of inspiration. He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi aims to connect the country’s talent and capabilities with national development by providing appropriate platforms, and the MP Sports Festival is a step in that direction.
