Annexure 19-40 11. Audit Report 42-44 12. Annual Accounts 45-73 NATIONAL SPORTS DEVELOPMENT FUND OVERVIEW 1. Sports and games have been recognized as an integral part of human resources development. Almost all countries of the world are making signi cant investment for the promotion of sports and games. Excellent performance in Olympics and other international sports events has become a matter of national prestige and pride and also an indication of quality of human development. India could perform well in certain sports disciplines like Hockey in the past. Some sports persons, through their individual brilliance, have also shown excellent performance in international sports events. The performance of India in the game of Cricket, with the stupendous public support and vast resources, is a milestone in sports in the country. But when we take an overall view, the performance of India in sports has not been optimal. Absence of sports culture, lack of suf cient facilities like quali ed coaches/specialists, sports infrastructure and inadequate sponsors to sportspersons for their training/coaching have been found to be some of the reasons for the sub-optimal performance. The National Sports Policy recognized the need to bring in adequate facilities for promotion of sports and games through various sources.
