Agriculture Minister K. Govardhan Reddy has suggested that parents should check where there are facilities for games and sports in educational institutions for the all-round development of children.
He participated in a program held at Jawahar Bharati Degree College on the occasion of National Sports Day on Monday.
The minister said that games and sports are equally important for children along with education and teachers and parents should encourage them. He lamented that no one asked him about the facilities related to sports and games as part of our government.
Govardhan Reddy said that parents should develop awareness about sports and physical fitness and encourage children in all aspects.
Sports not only develop physical fitness but also teach them to face life's challenges whether they win or lose. Talking to the students, running track, kho-kho, kabaddi and volleyball courts were opened.
Kavali MLA R. Pratapkumar Reddy said that the local people are indebted to Ramachandra Reddy who started universal institutions at a time when there were no good educational facilities in the district. Many politicians, high civil servants and engineers, doctors and others have come from those institutions.
Rajya Sabha member B. Mastan Rao said that the state level ball badminton competition will be organized in Chevur in the first week of September and asked the students to participate in it. D. Ramachandra Reddy's family members, directors and high officials of other organizations participated.
