Rijiju took a decision to increase the diet budget to bring parity between athletes in all SAI training centres. They will get diet as recommended by coach & nutritionist. All my decisions will be based on feedbacks from athletes & coaches. It will benefit 12500 athletes.
The Minister also discussed about the changes and new facilities to be given in National camp for the betterment of Indian Boxing.
