Transforming Uttarakhand: New Sports and Tourism Policies Highlighted by CM Dhami
Uttarakhand is witnessing a new dawn with the announcement of an invigorating sports policy aimed at nurturing young talent, as outlined by Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami. This bold move promises to provide budding athletes with unparalleled opportunities and platforms to showcase their skills.
Enhancing Sports Infrastructure for Young Talents
Speaking at the esteemed closing ceremony of the International President’s Cup-2025 and the Fourth Tehri Water Sports Cup-2025, CM Dhami emphasized the state’s commitment to developing world-class sports infrastructure. This, he assured, will facilitate the hosting of prestigious national and international competitions, placing Uttarakhand firmly on the global sports map.
Celebrating Achievements and Acknowledging Efforts
During the Tehri Garhwal event, the Chief Minister not only applauded the medalists but also recognized the continuous efforts made by the state to expand tourism activities. “Tehri Lake is fast becoming a major hub for adventure sports, alongside its role in energy production,” he noted.
Guiding Youth Towards National Development
In another notable engagement at the 71st ‘National Convention’ of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) in Dehradun, CM Dhami praised the organization for its role in guiding the youth towards national development. This dedication to inspiring patriotism among students and youth has been a constant endeavor for over seven decades.
Tourism: A Blossoming Economic Pillar
The tourism sector in Uttarakhand is thriving like never before. The High-Altitude Ultra Marathon held in the region recently attracted over 750 athletes from 18 states, marking a significant boost in tourism. This surge aligns seamlessly with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision, who commended the growing winter tourism during his recent visit to Adi Kailash.
Unwavering Support from the Central Government
CM Dhami attributes much of the progress to the “double-engine” support from Prime Minister Modi’s government, which has propelled Uttarakhand’s tourism industry to unprecedented heights. According to The Hans India, this collaborative effort has not only bolstered tourism but has also created ample employment opportunities for locals, prompting many families to return to their native villages.
Uttarakhand stands on the brink of transformative growth, fueled by robust policies and a shared vision of progress for sports and tourism.
