“The spirit of Ek Bharat, Shrestha Bharat, the unity of the nation, is important for the country’s development. Sports play a significant role in this. That is why I say, Jo Khelta Hai, Woh Khilta Hai,” the Prime Minister said.
He also held brief but inspiring conversations with athletes Mohsin Ali, a participant in the Khelo India Water Sports Festival, and Rasmita Sahoo from Odisha, highlighting their dedication and achievements.
