KATHMANDU, Jan 23: Member Secretary of National Sports Council (NSC) Tanka Lal Ghising said that the development of sports and players has not been achieved due to the lack of proper investment and systematic planning in the sports sector.
While addressing the two-day sports journalism training program organized in Kathmandu on Monday, Member Secretary Ghising said that one should not think about giving medals to the country without investing in sports and athletes. He said that starting from the third week of March, the NSC has started training for 23 games to participate in the Asian Games.
