  • Press Release J&K's Lone Wrestler, Who Learns the Nuances by Watching Sushil and Bajrang's Videos on Youtube
    Press Release J&K’s lone wrestler, who learns the nuances by watching Sushil and Bajrang’s videos on YouTube Pune, January 11: Not every heart-warming story is from the medallists. Some come from the likes of Deepak Singh from Jammu and Kashmir (J&K). For Deepak, the opportunity to come and compete at the Khelo India Youth Games is in itself a major step in his young career. He dreams of getting into one of Sports Authority of India’s scheme to ensure that he gets more opportunity, coaching and competition. Whatever he has learnt is from his coach and by watching videos of Sushil Kumar and Bajrang Punia. He lost his first bout against Maharashtra’s Parveen in the boys U-17 freestyle wrestling 55kg weight category on Friday. Yet, the 16-year-old is not as dejected as you would expect from an early loser. He calls it a learning phase. “I am from Kathua, and not a single kid in my school (GHSS Badnota School) or in that area is into wrestling. So I can’t practice unless I participate in any tournament. Therefore, every such event is a learning step for me and try to improve my performance by learning from my mistakes,” said Deepak. “We have traditional wrestling but modern wrestling infrastructure, training and support system does not exist in J&K. There are no coaches or even mats in our area,” he added. Naturally, Deepak is a lone entry from his state in the wrestling discipline in Khelo India Youth Games, Pune and this is the first national tournament for the wrestler.

  • Fit India Movement
    NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY DELHI Launch of FIT INDIA MOVEMENT 29Tth August 2019 REPORT By:- Dr. Anidev singh Student Activity & sports officer National institute of technology Delhi INTRODUCTION OF FIT INDIA MOVEMENT Honourable Prime Minister of India Shri Narendra Modi launched “Fit India Movement” at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium on the occasion of National Sports Day celebrated every year on 29th August, the birth anniversary of Indian Hockey Wizard, Major Dhyanchand, saying the initiative is the need of the hour and will take the country towards a healthier future. At a colourful ceremony, which included a presentation of India's indigenous martial art forms, dances and sports, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi said technology has contributed to a sedentary lifestyle. The campaign is aimed at encouraging people to include physical activity and sports in their everyday lives. "Fitness has always been an integral part of our culture. But there is indifference towards fitness issues now. A few decades back, a normal person would walk 8- 10km in a day, do cycling or run," PM said at the event."But with technology, physical activity has reduced. We walk less now and the same technology tells us that we are not walking enough," he added. The Prime Minister also administered a fitness pledge in his address, inviting all Indians to join in spreading awareness towards physical fitness. The launch was also attended by Sports Minister Shri Kiren Rijiju and this year's National Sports Awards winners among others. The Prime Minister congratulated the winners of the national sports awards and lauded India's sporting achievements.
