SUPREME COURT TO EXAMINE IF SPORTS CAN BE INCLUDED AS FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT LIKE EDUCATION


The Supreme Court agreed to hear a PIL seeking to boost sports in India by making it a compulsory part of the educational curriculum from elementary to higher secondary levels as part of fundamental rights in line with the right to education. The court issued notice to the Centre, state governments, Union Territories, University Grants Commission, National Council of Educational Research and Training and Sports Authority of India seeking their response whether sports could be treated as a fundamental right to make the government authorities liable to put in place sports infrastructure at all levels of education.
