The Union Government supplements their efforts. The stadiums  in  various  parts  of  the  country  are  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the respective bodies/departments of the State/UT Governments. As such, the information about them is not maintained in this Ministry. However, under the 'Utilisation and creation/upgradation of sports infrastructure' component  of  the  Khelo  India  Scheme,  this  Ministry  has  sanctioned  289 sports infrastructure projects of various categories amounting to ₹ 2396.49 crore  across  the  country,  including  Bihar  (11)  and  Tamil  Nadu  (5),  on  the basis  of  proposals  received  from  them  from  time  to  time.
