The Sports Ministry has launched ‘Kirti’, a grassroots-level talent-identification programme aimed at school-going children.
The programme will identify and nurture talent and bridge the gaps in sports across the country.
Chopra, the Olympic and world champion javelin thrower said that a strong base for school-going children will pave the way for a perfect future.

”School can plan their regimen properly, how they will select children (for sports) and how they will manage their academics and sports,” said Chopra, the 2020 Tokyo Olympic gold medallist.
”I think that this (education system) should change so that both sports and academics can be balanced. If that happens then it will bring about great changes in our country,” said Chopra.
