Q2) Do you think that the Union Government should provide more facilities to other sports else than cricket?

- Yes, I do play a sport, volleyball, and obviously I would like to take it up as a career if the Union Government takes efforts to make progress in it. -Meghraj Reddy
- I would like to take up skating as my career, but as there are very less facilities and we really do not get support and encouragement. So I would think before deciding my career. -Sanika Mate
- Yes, I would like to take it up as a career but it requires a tough mindset and a fixed idea from a very young age. -Saibaba Nargund
Sports has a very good effect on our mind. We get fresh after playing. We can concentrate well and also feel happy. Not only does our body stay fit but also our mind. -Sanika Mate
