Highlighting the government’s commitment, Mandaviya said, “The RESET Programme is an important step towards recognising and empowering our retired athletes who have made the nation proud with their achievements. We urge all retired sportspersons to take advantage of this opportunity to develop new skills, remain engaged in the sports community, and continue contributing to the nation’s sports legacy.”
The RESET Programme, designed to support retired athletes in their career development, aims to bridge the gap between generations, allowing the skills and experience of retired athletes to benefit young aspiring sports talents.
