He said it was the matter of shame for the Sports Council that it put the tents over the incomplete Sports Complex to hide their failure at Subash Stadium Udhampur during Khelo India Games.
Today sports lovers lodged massive protest against Sports Council and concerned authorities at Mini Stadium Udhampur, and raised questions as to how the Prime Minister’s Khelo India initiative will be successful without much needed sports infrastructure.
He further said District administration is also responsible for demoralising young talent in district, adding that it has failed to complete these structures in a framed time period.
Tarun informed that the foundation stone of the Indoor Sports Complex laid way back in November 2013 and after 5 years project has yet to be completed.
Tarun said that Sports Council has no work policy to promote sports in the state.
