Along with this, arrangements have been made to appoint internationally medal winning players on gazetted posts through direct recruitment. Also, two percent horizontal reservation has been arranged for the appointment of talented and skilled players of the state in government-public undertakings of the state, on posts outside the purview of the Public Service Commission.
Yogi said that new sports persons are being groomed from village to village with the help of Khel Mahakumbh while 5,000 to 7,000 new players have been prepared in each district. Apart from this, sports kits are being made available to rural players through Youth and Women’s Mangal Dals in rural areas.
