Sir,
It is a healthy development that more and more women are taking part in sports. But there are still certain barriers that need to be overcome so that women can participate in large numbers.
Participation in sports is surely going to benefit them pychologically, physiologically and sociologically.
But due to insecurities in sports, most of the parents do not allow their daughters to participate. Keeping in view such insecurities. Sports department must take into account these insecurities, and find a way out to safeguard the interests of women players.
Yours etc…
