How the exam will ask it

ಪ್ರಿಲಿಮ್ಸ್

  • The Khelo India Sports Goods Manufacturing Scheme was approved by the Union Cabinet on 28 October 2026.
  • The scheme seeks to strengthen domestic manufacturing of sports equipment under the Khelo India umbrella.
  • Khelo India is administered by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports.
  • Sport is a State subject under the Seventh Schedule (Entry 33, State List), though the Centre runs national sports programmes.

ಮೇನ್ಸ್

GS2 (government policies and interventions; sports policy) and GS3 (industrial policy, manufacturing). Issue: dependence on imported sports equipment limits access and raises costs; the scheme links Khelo India's sports promotion to domestic manufacturing capacity. Implication: it can support local industry, jobs and affordable gear, but depends on quality standards, MSME participation and last-mile access; way forward is clear targets, outcome monitoring and coordination with States, since sport is a State subject.
