Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday urged all the sports lovers of the country to attend his interaction with the Indian contingent of the Commonwealth Games on Wednesday.
PM Modi will be interacting with the Indian contingent bound for the Commonwealth Games (CWG) 2022 on Wednesday through video conferencing.
"At 10 AM tomorrow, 20th July, will be interacting with the Indian contingent which will represent the nation at the @birminghamcg22. I would urge sports lovers to join the programme and keep supporting our team through the games," tweeted PM Modi.
The interaction by the Prime Minister is a part of his continuous endeavor to motivate athletes ahead of their participation in major sporting events.
Last year, Modi interacted with the Indian athletes' contingent bound for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics as well as the Indian para-athletes' contingent for the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games.
Even during the sporting events, the Prime Minister took a keen interest in the progress of the athletes. On many occasions, he personally rang up athletes to congratulate them on their success and sincere efforts, while motivating them to do better.
Further, also upon their return to the country, the Prime Minister has also met and interacted with the athletes.
The CWG 2022 is scheduled to be held in Birmingham from July 28 till August 8. A total of 215 athletes, participating in 141 events across 19 sporting disciplines, will represent India in the CWG 2022.
