Rohtak’s High-Performance Sports Hub Gets Infrastructure Boost Under Khelo India Review

Depreciation is one fact which one cannot see but one cannot omit at the same time. When it comes to sports infrastructure, the inevitable depreciation can be reversed in order to meet the safety protocols.

Sh. Vineel Krishna Ravella, Joint Secretary, Khelo India, visited SAI, NCoE Rohtak to review the sports infrastructure and training facilities at SAI NCoE Rohtak. The visit was centered around highlighting all the infrastructural commitments that the SAI had taken up in the area and their progress.

Specialised in boxing and wrestling mainly, the rajiv gandhi sports complex in Rohtak hosts this facility. The Rajiv Gandhi Sports Complex is a multi-sport facility that supports both mass participation and elite training. It is the main part of Rohtak's sports infrastructure. The complex has both indoor and outdoor spaces.

The outdoor spaces include a cricket ground, football field, hockey ground, athletics track, and tennis courts. The indoor spaces include basketball, badminton, volleyball, gymnastics, and table tennis. It was built to meet international standards and has seating for spectators, floodlights, and other necessary facilities. This makes it a major regional center for competitions and training camps in many sports.

The SAI National Centre of Excellence Rohtak, which is run by the Sports Authority of India, is located in this complex. It was built as part of the Khelo India initiative. The National Boxing Academy, dedicated wrestling halls, and advanced strength and conditioning gyms are all located at this center, which focuses on boxing and wrestling.
