In a strategic move towards Olympic dominance, Haryana’s top bureaucrat, Chief Secretary Anurag Rastogi, led a comprehensive review on Monday. Discussions spanned sports development, foundational education for kids, nutrition programs, and advanced learning sectors.
Renowned as India’s sports capital, Haryana is scripting its next chapter with ‘Mission Olympic 2036 – Vijayee Bhava.’ This visionary initiative focuses on spotting and nurturing talent from ages 8-10, grooming them for podium finishes in 2036. Funds are approved, and the Sports University will drive the program forward.
The ‘One District, One Sport’ campaign is ensuring no talent goes unnoticed, bridging gaps from urban Ambala to rural Nuh with district-specific sports focus.
Tech innovation steps in with the upcoming ‘Khelo Haryana’ app, set to empower athletes with real-time updates, event alerts, and resource access.
Rastogi stressed the need for governance that’s accountable, digital-first, and people-oriented. The state is marching in lockstep with PM Modi’s developed India blueprint, aiming to lead national progress.
Shekhar Vidyarthi from Women and Child Development shared upgrades at over 4,000 Anganwadis, now equipped with pre-school essentials like toys, furniture, sanitation kits, and purified water. Another 21,962 centers received specialized kits.
Backed by 88 master trainers, 25,000 Anganwadi staff across all 22 districts are nurturing lakhs of young minds daily with superior early education.
Directives were clear: define precise goals, timelines, and metrics for all projects. Plans include NIPUN Bharat’s reach to Class 5 by 2027 and elevating Anganwadis to premium pre-school standards.
Digital oversight intensifies with Aapar-Aabha IDs for 0-6 year-olds. Health teams are curating local nutrient-rich menus and enforcing malnutrition recovery protocols rigorously.
This integrated strategy underscores Haryana’s resolve to forge medal-winning athletes while building a robust foundation for child welfare, eyeing a stellar 2036 performance.
