UP govt removes senior IAS officer from all posts after SC reprimand
Sources said the Chief Minister took this action after the Supreme Court expressed displeasure against Singh in a case.
In a significant move to boost sports and support athletes in Uttar Pradesh, the Yogi Adityanath government has earmarked a substantial Rs 1,950 crore in the 2024-2025 budget for the development of sports infrastructure across districts.
This allocation, which is 67 per cent up compared to that of 2023-24, underscores the government’s dedication to fostering a robust sporting ecosystem and providing valuable opportunities for players across the state.
Additionally, recognizing the need for quality training, the government has arranged for 50 international players to provide training to residents of sports hostels at an honorarium of Rs 1.50 lakh per month. The Yogi government proposes Rs 50 crore for private participation in sports infrastructure construction and allocates another Rs 50 crore for an award scheme for winners in national and international competitions.
