Honorarium to jobless Coaches

†1671. SHRI MALOOK NAGAR:

Will  the  Minister  of  YOUTH  AFFAIRS  AND  SPORTS  be  pleased  to state:

- (a) whether the Government is contemplating to provide honorarium to jobless coaches and essential facilities for the practice of the sportspersons  to  compensate  the  losses  due  to  discontinuing  of  the sports  competition  at  the  district,  State  and  the  country  level  due  to COVID-19 and lockdown; and
- (b) the details of the facilities  being  provided  in  Uttar  Pradesh especially in Bijnor Parliamentary Constituency?

## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER FOR YOUTH AFFAIRS AND SPORTS (SHRI ANURAG SINGH THAKUR)

- (a) Sports  is  a  'State'  Subject  and  development  of  Sports,  including providing  financial  support  to  sports  coaches  and  sports  facilities  to sportspersons  across  the  country,  rests  with  the  respective  State Government and National Sports Federations (NSFs). The Government of India supplements and complements the efforts of the State Governments and NSFs in this regard.

The  Ministry  of  Youth  Affairs  &  Sports  is  not  implementing  any Scheme  that  provides  for  grant  of  honorarium  to  jobless  coaches. However,  the  coaches  and  athletes  who  were  covered  under  various schemes of the Sports Authority of India (SAI), Khelo India and Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) continue to get financial assistance as per their entitlement and norms of the scheme, and no contractual coach was terminated by SAI during lockdown period. Further, though conventional training of sportspersons was suspended during the lockdown period, Standard Operating Procedures for opening of sports venues and resumption of sports training have been issued  by  the  Ministry  and  the  SAI  and  training  of  sportspersons  have resumed as per these SOPs. (b) The  details  of  centres  under  SAI  sports  promotional  schemes, Khelo  India  scheme  and  accredited  sports  academies  in  the  State  of Uttar  Pradesh, including Bijnor Parliamentary Constituency, and sports disciplines  catered  to  therein,  are  placed  at  Annexure  -  I,  II  &  III respectively.
