In view of the rapidly declining Covid cases, Punjab Minister for Sports, Youth Services and NRIs Affairs Rana Gurmit Singh Sodhi on Wednesday directed the sports department to open all the stadiums across the state for players preparing for national and international sporting events.
“The players and coaches will have to ensure compliance with the guidelines issued by the Health Department for the prevention of COVID-19″, the minister categorically mentioned. A letter in this regard has also been issued to all the District Sports Officers, Sodhi said.
