There is a need for more and more sports academies to nurture young athletes along with creating new infrastructure to catapult India from a sports watching nation to a sports playing nation,” Tendulkar told today.

“Every child should have the right to play and have access to infrastructure. Over the years I have seen various sports gaining grounds in terms of awareness in people and the government initiatives towards it.

Sports like badminton, football, kabaddi among others have seen increasing awareness and appreciation towards athletes,” Tendulkar, a Rajya Sabha MP, said.
