Punjab News: Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann said that every playground in Punjab is a strong step in the fight against drugs and can play an important role in securing the future of the youth. He dedicated the modern playground prepared at a cost of Rs 67.16 lakh to the youth.
Modern sports facilities in the grounds
According to the Chief Minister, a volleyball court, football field, six-lane 400 meter running track and cricket pitch have been built in the new playground. Chain-link fencing, boundary walls and other necessary facilities have also been provided in the campus. These facilities will provide an opportunity to budding players to practice and hone their skills.
Mann said the government aims to provide world-class sports infrastructure in villages, so that talent from rural areas is not left behind due to lack of facilities. He said that for good education, every village should have a school and a well-equipped ground for sports.
Sports promote discipline and community spirit
The Chief Minister said that sports grounds are not just places for sports activities, but are also centers of social interaction, unity and brotherhood. Sports develop qualities like teamwork, discipline and mutual respect in the youth. He said that the aim of the government is not just to build grounds, but to create a healthy, self-confident and drug-free generation.
Mann expressed confidence that the new grounds will become hubs of sports activities and inspire more youth to take up sports. He said investment in sports is an investment in the health, character and future of youth.
