Sports is the central pillar of India's development agenda

The Khelo India mission sets a clear and ambitious goal: India must emerge as one of the world’s top 10 sporting nations by 2036 and break into the top five by 2047. By aligning these milestones with the Viksit Bharat vision and the centenary of Independence, the mission elevates sport beyond the pursuit of medals, positioning it as a central pillar of India’s national development agenda.
