Sports are the first school of discipline, self-confidence and teamwork: Chief Minister Rekha Gupta

These children are the brand ambassadors of a Viksit Delhi and a Viksit Bharat: CM Rekha Gupta

New Delhi(The Uttam Hindu): Delhi Chief Minister Smt. Rekha Gupta, accompanied by the Deputy Chairman of the Rajya Sabha, Hon’ble Shri Harivansh Ji, attended the Annual Sports Day ceremony at Delhi Public School (DPS), Mathura Road, on Saturday. She said that sports play a crucial role in fostering self-confidence, discipline, leadership skills, teamwork and positive thinking among children, while experiences on the sports field lay a strong foundation for success in all walks of life.
