JAMMU, Nov 27: Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Youth Congress (JKPYC) has appealed to Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to keep his words and bring the ‘Sports Policy’ for the welfare of budding sportspersons of J&K within one month.
The appeal was made by the JKPYC president Udhay Bhanu Chib in his address during a programme organized here today to felicitate four sportspersons for bringing laurels to J&K by winning medals in the Judo National Championship.
The impressive programme titled “Hum Mein Hai Rajiv ” was organised by Ranjyot Singh, Chairman Sports Cell JKPYC in which Udhay Bhanu Chib was the chief guest, while Sunny Jatt, AYC president Raipur Domana was also present.
Chib said that the programme has been conceptualized to propagate the thoughts and innovative initiatives of the architect of modern India, Bharat Ratna Rajiv Gandhi amongst the youth, farmers, women, labourers and every citizen of the country.
He lamented that unfortunately due to lack of Sports Policy, the J&K youth are facing several hardships. “As per Govt policy of J&K these outstanding sports persons are entitled to Govt jobs under SRO 349 but unfortunately they are facing immense hardships in getting the same,” he said.
The sportspersons who were honoured included Akshay, Rajat, Kavin and Ishika along with head coach Suraj Bhan Singh and BSF coach Rameshwar Singh Jamwal.
