Meghalaya chief minister Conrad K Sangma laid the foundation stone for the upgrade of JN Sports Complex at the Polo Grounds here and said the long-pending project was required for providing a boost to the sector.
He said the revamped sports complex will house a number of facilities and host activities that are important for the youth. He also spoke about a number of programmes in the pipeline for the youth and sportspersons which would be a part of the golden jubilee celebration of the state next year.
Conrad said the state sports policy which had suffered a setback because of the Covid pandemic will soon start rolling after improvement in the situation.
