The Uttar Pradesh government has launched the "One Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya One Sport" scheme to promote sports among girls studying in Kasturba Gandhi Residential Girls Schools (KGBVs). The scheme aims to give special sports training and promote the physical, mental, and social growth of girls from backward and underprivileged communities. It will help these girls prepare to compete at the national level in sports. In the pilot phase, two KGBV schools from each of the 73 districts, except Kanpur Dehat which has one, will be included. A sports committee in every school will select one sport based on the students’ interest and available resources. Sports experts will provide special training, and health check-ups and awareness sessions on nutrition and hygiene will be held.
