While five cities of Uttar Pradesh will host most of the events, shooting events will be held in New Delhi. This edition will also mark the debut of water sports including a rowing contest at Ramgarh Tal lake, Gorakhpur.
All the events during the 12-day Games will be organised at ‘borrowed’ venues due to a dearth of suitable infrastructure owned by the U.P. Sports Directorate.
KIUG helps around 4000 participating athletes gain recognition at the national-level. The idea behind Khelo India University Games is to promote the rich culture of the state, ensure fair play in sports, enhance exposure of university students, and gradually magnify Uttar Pradesh’s sports infrastructure.
