AHMEDABAD: He was addressing the first International Olympic Research Conference, organised by the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) in Gandhinagar.

"Prime Minister Narendra Modi has envisioned hosting the Olympics in 2036, which symbolises India's growing strength. As we move toward a developed India, the nation will celebrate its centenary of independence in 2047. By then, India will be among the developed nations. The role of Fit India is crucial in ensuring not just physical fitness but also mental fitness among citizens. A mentally and physically fit person contributes to building an ideal society, which paves the way for a prosperous nation. Hence, sports are a symbol of our rising strength," Mandaviya said.
