Abstract: The Policy aims at building on previous sports policies with a view to accomplishing the unfinished agenda and addressing the emerging challenges of India in the 21st century, most particularly the national goal of emerging as a global, yet inclusive, economic power in the near future. It aims at making the framework for sports in India more effective and inclusive with the full ownership and involvement of all stakeholders. The participant/athlete shall occupy center-stage in the Comprehensive National Sports Policy, with all other stakeholders playing a promotional, supportive and convergent role. The Policy has three broad objectives: Sports for all, Excellence in sports and Contingent Constitutional, Legal and Institutional measures to operationalize the Policy. [Policy has been put on the website of the Ministry with the purpose of inviting comments and suggestions from the general public and other interested groups. The last date for receiving the suggestions and comments is August 25, 2007].
