Inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Fit India movement and to realise the slogan, “UP will play, UP will win”, the Uttar Pradesh government has set an ambitious goal of one district, one stadium for the state.
The beginning has been made as UP is set to have four new government stadiums in Sambhal, Chandauli, Hapur and Shamli districts.
The state cabinet approved building of a cricket stadium in Bhartara village of Chandausi tehsil in Sambhal district. The District Administration will provide land free of cost to the Youth Welfare department for the stadium.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has undertaken a number of initiatives in the recent past which reflect his seriousness about Sports. The chief minister wants UP to be represented well in national and international sports competitions and is leaving no stone unturned to provide all the necessary facilities to ensure this.
