Hindustan Times West UP
|February 02, 2025
The government's flagship Khelo India programme to scout and nurture athletes at the grassroots level was the biggest beneficiary as the allocation for sports and youth affairs was hiked substantially by ₹351.98 crore in the Union Budget presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman here on Saturday.
NEW DELHI:
The ambitious scheme has been allocated ₹1,000 crore for the financial year 2025-26. This is ₹200 crore more than the grant of ₹800 crore in 2024-25.
Overall, the Ministry for Youth Affairs and Sports was designated ₹3,794.30 crore.
"This will further strengthen sports infra, boost Khelo India and expand youth-centric development initiatives, empowering the next generation of athletes and leaders," sports and youth affairs minister Mansukh Mandaviya posted on X, lauding the allocation for his ministry.
The increase is substantial considering there is no major sporting event like the Olympics, Commonwealth or Asian Games lined up in the next one year.
