‘Sports must for overall development’
Overall development of a person is possible only by participating in sports, opined Prof Indira, director of International Centre at University of Mysore.
She was speaking at the inauguration of the Inter-Collegiate Gymnastics, Swimming, Yogasana, Wrestling, Weight Lifting and Best Physique competitions-cum-selection trials at the University of Mysore in the city on Tuesday.
She said with the introduction of the semester system, students feel that competing in
