Nationwide Volunteering Initiative: ‘This Diwali with MY Bharat’
On National Sports Day in New Delhi, Union Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports, Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya, launched the “Retired Sportsperson Empowerment Training” (RESET) Programme. This initiative aims to empower retired athletes by providing them with the necessary skills and knowledge to enhance their employability and career development.
The RESET Programme is designed to bridge the generational gap by leveraging the unique experiences of retired athletes to benefit aspiring athletes. The programme aims to support the growth of sports in India and contribute to nation-building by nurturing future champions.
Eligible participants include retired athletes aged 20-50 who have won international medals, participated in international events, or have been national or state medallists. The programme will offer courses at two levels based on educational qualifications: Class 12th and above, and Class 11th and below. The Lakshmibai National Institute of Physical Education (LNIPE) will lead the pilot phase of the programme, which will be delivered in a hybrid format, combining self-paced online learning with on-ground training and internships.
Applications will be accepted through a dedicated portal, with the registration process starting immediately. Internships and placement assistance will be provided, and guidance for entrepreneurial ventures will be offered to participants upon successful completion of the course.
