PM Modi said, “Look at the experience of Khel Mahakumbh. The government machinery got habituated to work (for sports events organizing) and it raised the interest in sports in the youth of Gujarat. The result of the ecosystem created is; when the National Games took place after many years in Gujarat last week, I heard a lot of praises. I am in touch with the players and their coaches. They gave many congratulations to me. I told them not to congratulate me, but to congratulate the CM and the government of Gujarat. It is their hard work and efforts, due to which such a large sports festival of the country could be celebrated. All the players said that they go to international games and the hospitality and arrangements for them in Gujarat were similar to it. The way Gujarat has encouraged the sports sector by making this festival successful and setting new standards by hosting such a program, Gujarat has provided a great service to the country. I heartily congratulate the officials, government of Gujarat and people associated with sports for it.” DeshGujarat
