India is on the threshold of a unique demographic dividend with youth being a major strategic asset. The Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports, the nodal Ministry for youth empowerment and development has been working towards inculcating in the youth an enhanced sense of volunteerism, community service, personality development and good citizenship. Towards this end the Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan, one of its flagship implementing arms endeavours to help set up, mentor and nurture rural youth clubs.

Background

Nehru Yuva Kendras were established in the year 1972 with the objective of providing rural youth avenues to take part in the process of nation building as well providing opportunities for the development of their personality and skills. In the year 1987-88, Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan(NYKS) was set up as an autonomous organization under the Government of India, Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, to oversee working of these Kendras.

Coverage

NYKS alongwith the rural youth clubs is the largest grassroots level voluntary organization; one of its kind in the world. It channelises the power of youth who are in the age group of 13-35 years on the principles of voluntarism, self-help and community participation. NYKS has 501

3 Kendras, 28 Zonal offices and over 1.25 lakh village based active youth clubs with enrollment of about 37 lakh volunteers. The aim is to form village level voluntary action groups of youth at the grassroots level and harness this huge potential for nation building activities. It is proposed to expand NYKS to the remaining 122 new districts of the country during the current XI Plan period.

The youth clubs and its member volunteers form the base of the NYKS’s vast national rural network. NYKS, with its extensive spread and network of youth clubs, nearly 20000 National Youth Corps(NYC) volunteers and Nehru Yuva Kendras has developed into a vibrant mechanism to offer an opportunity to the youth to function as a strategic asset for the country.

12 Chapter 15 RAJIV GANDHI NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF YOUTH DEVELOPMENT

As youth development constitutes a core component of national development in the context of building human resources in a vast country like ours, it was felt that there must be a national organization to identify all the relevant aspects of youth motivation and to develop and design programmes for promoting youth welfare. With this objective, Rajiv Gandhi National Institute of Youth Development (RGNIYD) was set up as an autonomous body by the Department of Youth Affairs and Sports, Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India and registered under Societies Registration Act, XXVII of 1975 S.No.67 of 1993.

It has emerged as a professional resource agency, and acts as a think-tank of the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, and assists the Government and Non-government agencies in youth related activities. As the apex Institute at the national level, it works in close cooperation with the NSS, NYK and other youth organisations in the implementation of training programmes. The Institute is a nodal agency for training youth and a facilitator of youth development activities in rural as well as in urban areas.

It was accorded the status of deemed university by Ministry of HRD on 23rd October, 2008.

The Institute is provided with the essential facilities and infrastructure so that it would serve as a Centre of Advanced Study and Applied Research for ensuring availability of professional expertise

13 in youth work and to create a competent cadre of youth workers. As a regular feature of its functional activities, the Institute has launched a number of research projects and extension programmes to unearth the potential in the young people which perhaps remain untapped.

15 Chapter 16 YOUTH HOSTELS

Youth Hostels are built to promote youth travel to enable the young people experience the rich cultural heritage of the country. The construction of the Youth Hostels is a joint venture of the Central and State Governments. While the Central Government bears the cost of construction, the State Governments provide fully developed land free of cost with water, electricity and approach roads. Youth hostels are located in areas of historical and cultural value, educational centre, tourist importance etc. where facilities for youth activities are available. These provide good accommodation for the youth at reasonable rates. The Youth Hostels are looked after by Managers, appointed by the Central Government.

Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports (Department of Youth Affairs), Government of India, have decided to select Managers for the Youth Hostels from retired Defence Personnels preferably from the catchment area of the Youth Hostel and having command over Hindi, English and local languages. Under the new appointment policy, persons retired from Defence Services (The Army/ Navy/Airforce) in the rank of Major/Lt.Col./Col.or equivalent are eligible for appointment as Managers in Youth Hostels. Willing retired JCO’s can also be appointed.

During the current financial year, the tariff charges of the Youth Hostels have been revised. The last revision of the tariff charges was during 2003.

So far 80 Youth Hostels have been constructed across the country and 5 more youth hostels are under various stages of construction. Out of 80 Youth Hostels, 12 Hostels have been transferred to Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan (NYKS), Sports Authority of India (SAI) and the respective State Governments for optimum use for youth and sports development. A statement indicating details of such completed/transferred/under construction youth hostels are at Annex-V,VI & VII.

An amount of Rs.1,00,00,000/- (Rupees One crore only) @Rs.5.00 lakh each Youth Hostel have been released during the current financial year, 2010-11 for undertaking immediate facelifting of 20 Youth Hostels located at Port Blair (A&N Island), Vijayawada (AP), Pedam Mapusa (Goa), Gandhinagar (Gujarat), Dalhousie (HP), Thirtharameshwar (Karnataka), Kozhikode (Kerala), Jabalpur (MP), Gopalpur-on-Sea (Orissa), Puri (Orissa), Ajmer (Rajasthan), Jaipur (Rajasthan), Tanjavur (Tamil Nadu), Trichy (Tamil Nadu), Agra (UP), Mussoorie (Uttarakhand), Darjeeling (WB), Tezpur (Assam), Gangtaok (Sikkim), Agartala (Tripura).

17 Chapter 17 NATIONAL PROGRAMME FOR YOUTH AND ADOLESCENT DEVELOPMENT (NPYAD)

The scheme titled National Programme for Youth and Adolescent Development (NPYAD) has been formulated by merger of four 100% Central Sector grants-in-aid schemes of the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports during 10th Plan namely, Promotion of Youth Activities & Training, Promotion of National Integration, Promotion of Adventure and Development and Empowerment of Adolescents, with a view to reduce multiplicity of schemes with similar objectives, ensuring uniformity in funding pattern and implementation mechanism, avoiding delays in availability of funds to the field level Organisations and institutionalizing participation of State Governments in project formulation and its implementation. While there will be synergy and convergence in operational mechanism and programme delivery, there will be clear distinction with regard to the financial parameters of each of the components under the scheme.

The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports will receive proposals from All India Organisations directly, except for Panchayati Raj Institutions and Urban Local Bodies and Educational Institutions, including Polytechnics who will route their proposals through the Department of Youth Affairs of the Concerned State Government / UT Administration.

The scheme is being implemented in the project mode through Project Implementing Agencies (PIAs). The PIA may submit project proposal involving one or more programme area or components under the scheme but the key factor for consideration of the project will be the past experience and resource (infrastructure and technical manpower) available with the PIA. The proposals are placed before a duly constituted Project Appraisal Committee (PAC) in the Department of Youth Affairs under the Chairmanship of Secretary(Youth Affairs) for taking a decision on the proposals.

The targeted beneficiaries of the programmes are youth and adolescents under a youth network recognized by the State or Central Government. They include members of youth clubs affiliated to Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan or State Governments, NSS Units, or student youth in Schools, Colleges and Universities. Adolescents and Youth from other established youth organizations, which have branches in different parts of the country, are also eligible. Preference is given to the youth with special abilities and youth belonging to scheduled caste, scheduled tribes and other weaker sections.

84 Chapter 211 NATIONAL PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION OF INDIA

The National Playing Fields Association of India (NPFAI) was established in February 2009 as a Society under the Societies Registration Act 1860. Concerned at the shortage of open spaces and playing fields in the country and diversion of some existing fields to other activities, it was considered necessary to evolve an institutional arrangement to protect open spaces and playing fields. Accordingly, the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports took the initiative in setting up the NPFAI.

Union Minister for Youth Affairs and Sports is the chairperson of the NPFAI and the members include senior officers in the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, representatives of State Governments etc. Eminent persons such as Shri F S Nariman, Shri Bishen Singh Bedi, Smt P T Usha, Smt Indu puri and Cdr Nandy Singh, among others, are founder members of the Society. The NPFAI was formally launched on 26th February, 2009.

The main objectives of NPFAI are:

● To protect, preserve, promote, develop and improve playing fields and open spaces and other facilities for sports and games; and

● To evolve a national policy on playing fields, playgrounds, play pitches, parks and open spaces.

The main focus of the NPFAI would be on protecting and preserving existing playfields and promoting new ones, apart from developing standards and norms process, for making available playing fields and open spaces.

The NPFAI received Rs 50.00 lacs as seed money from the National Sport Development Fund in July 2009.

While the NPFAI will be the apex body, all State Governments would be encouraged to set up similar societies at the state level, which would be affiliated with the national society. This initiative is expected to create a national awareness of the social benefits that flow out of playing fields, playgrounds and open green spaces in terms of quality of life and social inclusiveness. The concept of NPFAI and its objectives were introduced to the State Governments during the Conference of State Sports Ministers held in August 2009 and it was again discussed in the Sports Ministers’

85 Conference in September 2010 where all State Sports Ministers assured that State level Playing Fields Associations would be formed on priority. All the State Governments have been requested to expedite setting up of such bodies. So far, two States, namely Himachal Pradesh and West Bengal have formed State level associations. New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) has also formed a playfields association.

The NPFAI had signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the National playing Fields Association of the UK (its operational name is ‘Fields in Trust’) on 18th August 2009. The objective of the MoU is ‘to establish a strategic partnership that involves collaborative arrangements and cooperation between the parties’.

Consequent upon signing the MoU, a two member delegation headed by the Chief Executive of the Fields in Trust (FIT) visited Delhi in September 2009. The purpose of the visit was to make site visit to various playfields across the city to make on the spot assessment and identify 2-3 sites to develop them as model playgrounds. The team visited some sports complexes and playgrounds in the city maintained by various agencies like DDA, MCD, NDMC, Civil Services sports control Board and Kendriya Vidyalayas. Based on the factors like need of the area, locality/accessibility of the field, shape of the site, sustainability etc. the delegation shortlisted some sites in Delhi.

Subsequently the NPFAI, in consultation with the local authorities, had identified some grounds for developing them as model play fields as pilot project. Out of them, the NDMC has already developed four locations as model playfields.

Separately, NPFAI has developed basic playfields models of different sizes providing minimum facilities which include leveled ground, kids play area with swings/slides etc., play facility for one or two sports disciplines, toilet facility etc. General guidelines for development of playfields are being finalized for circulation to State Governments and other stake holders. States are expected to adopt NPFAI guidelines with suitable modifications according to the local requirements.

Playfields/facilities have been developed in two Welfare Organizations for Government employees, thirteen Colleges and five schools in Delhi under the Commonwealth Legacy Plan with Central Government assistance. The facilities created include construction of synthetic courts for basketball, table tennis, shooting range, fitness centre etc.

NDMC has prepared a project identifying 78 sites of varying sizes in their jurisdiction for developing them as playfields. It is likely to be implemented soon.

NPFAI has developed a website (http://www.playfields.nic.in)

This has resulted in the best ever performance by India in any major, multi-disciplinary sports event with a haul of 101 medals (38 Gold, 27 Silver and 36 Bronze), which is more than double the medals India won at CWG, Melbourne, 2006. This achievement placed India 2nd in Medals Tally after Australia and ahead of major sporting countries such as England, Canada, South Africa etc.

Asian Games 2010: In 16th Asian Games 2010 held at Guangzhou (China) from 12-27 November 2010 also, Indian sportspersons put up a commendable performance and got record number of medals. India stood at 6th position in the medals tally, which is India’s best since inception of Asian Games. India got 64 medals (14 Gold, 17 Silver and 33 Bronze).

These outstanding performances by young Indian sportspersons have done the country proud. It is expected that they will carry them forward to the London Olympics and bring further glory.

Enhancement in award money for winners of medals in Commonwealth Games 2010 and Asian Games 2010: With the objective of motivating and boosting the morale of the sportspersons who did the country proud by winning record number of medals in Commonwealth Games 2010 and Asian Games 2010, the Government doubled the award money from Rs. 10 lakh to Rs. 20 lakh for gold medalists, from Rs. 5 lakh to Rs. 10 lakh for silver medalists and from Rs. 3 lakh to Rs. 6 lakh to bronze medalists. Award money worth Rs. 27 crore was disbursed to medal winners of CWG 2010 and Asian Games 2010.

Duration of Tenures in respect of office bearers of IOA and recognized NSFs: With the objective of bringing professionalism and transparency in the functioning of IOA and NSFs, the Ministry issued instructions on 1st May 2010 regulating the duration of tenures in respect of elected office bearers of India Olympic Association (IOA) and recognized National Sports Federations (NSFs). Government regulations issued in September 1975 capping the tenure of the President, Secretary and Treasurer at not more than two consecutive terms of four years each were kept in abeyance by way of executive instructions issued on 11.10.2001, 24.8.2002 and 31.10.2002.

88 Taking into account Delhi High Court’s judgment dated 2.3.2009 in the matter of Indian Hockey Federation versus UOI and a Public Interest Litigation filed in Delhi High Court and international practices on tenure limits, the Department of Sports issued instructions vide letter dated 1 st May 2010 restoring the tenure clause with some modifications. The modified instructions provide for the following:

(i) The President of any recognized NSF including IOA can hold the office for a maximum period of 12 years with or without break.

(ii) The Secretary and the Treasurer of any NSF including IOA may serve a maximum of two successive terms of four years each after which a minimum cooling off period of four years will apply to seek fresh election to either post.

(iii) The President, the Secretary and the Treasurer of any recognized NSF including IOA shall cease to hold that post on attaining the age of 70 years.

Although the modified instructions came into operation with immediate effect but these instructions will not disturb the current tenure of any member provided he/she has been properly elected to the post. In other words, the tenure condition will become operative for all future elections as they may be conducted in future in their normal course.

Integration of sports and physical education with academic curriculum of schools:

Sports, Education and Health are closely inter-linked with each other, which is why it is essential that sports and physical education form an integral part of school curriculum in order to promote all round development of children. Apart from health, sports and physical education also help in inculcating leadership qualities in students. Empirical evidence shows that students who are actively involved in sports activities also improve their academic performance. Even though the National Education Policy and National curriculum Framework underline the need for integrating sports and physical education with academic curriculum, its percolation to the school level has been very inadequate. The constraints are many, including lack of physical education teachers in schools, non-availability of playfields, excessive emphasis on academic curriculum etc.

The Ministry of Human Resource Development have recently enacted the Right of Children for Free & Compulsory Education Act, 2009 (RTE Act, 2009) in August, 2009, which provides adequate emphasis for physical education and sports in schools. With the enactment of RTE Act, 2009, no school can be established or recognized unless it fulfils the norms of playfields. Where a school established before the commencement of the Act, does not fulfill the norms and standards, it will

89 be required to fulfill such norms and standards at its own expenses within a period of three years. Where a school fails to fulfill the norms and standards within the specified period, the concerned authority shall withdraw recognition granted to such school. In a school (6th to 8th Class), where admission of children is above hundred, it is mandatory for the school to have a part-time instructor for health and physical education. Building of the school, which is to be all-weather building should consist of, among other things, playground. Play material, games and sports equipment are required to be provided to each class, as required.

Since RTE Act, 2009 has come into existence, it is desirable that all provisions of the Act are strictly implemented and no school is allowed to come up, unless it complies with the norms specified in the schedule of the Act and the existing schools, established before the commencement of the Act, are made to comply with the norms within a period of three years, as specified in the Act.
