Sports  hall.  The  Ministry  of  Youth  Affairs  &  Sports  is  implementing  a scheme, namely, 'Khelo India - National Programme for Development of Sports' with effect from the year 2016-17. This scheme  aims  at conducting  sports  competitions,  identification  of  sporting  talent  and development of sports infrastructure all over the country. This scheme, provides  interalia  for  construction  of  multipurpose  halls  and  stadia complex. Since the scheme has been launched from the current financial year 2016-17 only, no indoor stadium has been sanctioned so far.

Details  of  multipurpose  indoor  halls  sanctioned  under  USIS  during the  last  two  years  is  attached  as  Annexure  -  I.  Further,  under  the erstwhile  RGKA,  four  indoor  sports  halls  were  sanctioned  during  the currency  of  the  Scheme,  in  the  year  2015-16.  Details  of  the  same  are attached as Annexure - II.
