According to the Governor, victory or success could be achieved only through struggle, zeal and discipline which could be found in all kinds of sports as well as in the players.
Sports, according to the Governor, are not only a medium of entertainment but also an important part of one’s life. “Sports, on the one hand, help in improving physical and behavioral development of an individual and also increases the spirit of discipline among the players,” the Governor added.
