Srinagar, Oct 25: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Sunday called upon the Tourism Department, Jammu and Kashmir Sports Council and private institutions to provide professional training and mentorship to local winners of the Kashmir Marathon, saying their achievements should open doors to national and international competitions. Addressing the award ceremony of the Kashmir Marathon 2026 in Srinagar, Sinha said the introduction of a separate category for Jammu and Kashmir residents had created opportunities for local athletes, particularly those from remote areas, to demonstrate their talent. Tourism Department, Jammu Kashmir Sports Council, and private institutions must provide trainers for today's local winners, support and mentor them, and guide them so that, building upon this marathon, they can reach national and international tournaments. I want the medal won by local youth at today's Kashmir Marathon to mark the beginning of a new journey, he said. The Lieutenant Governor said sporting talent existed across the country, but access to opportunities remained unequal. He expressed confidence that Jammu and Kashmir could produce future marathon champions with proper training and institutional support. A total of 68 medals were awarded during the ceremony, with 34 each in the full marathon and half marathon categories. Congratulating the winners, Sinha said the significance of a marathon extended beyond medals and podium finishes. He said participants who completed the race after hours of physical effort deserved recognition for their determination, discipline and perseverance. The Lieutenant Governor said the Kashmir Marathon was gaining recognition internationally and helping establish Srinagar as a destination for major sporting events. He said runners arriving from different parts of India and abroad would carry memories of Kashmir's natural beauty and hospitality to their respective countries and regions. Highlighting the importance of physical fitness, Sinha said marathons could encourage people to adopt healthier lifestyles and become more conscious of lifestyle-related diseases. Marathons inspire people to make a new beginning towards a healthy life. I am fully confident that the sight of young participants and also senior runners above the age of 50 in this very Kashmir Marathon can inspire lakhs of people to take a step forward and at least include a daily walk in their routine, he said. Calling upon young people to take responsibility for their future, Sinha said determination and collective effort were essential for building a developed India and a self-reliant Jammu and Kashmir. Shaping the future in the right direction lies in our own hands. Today, it is essential that we take responsibility for our own tomorrow and, through determined effort, create a new history, he said. The Lieutenant Governor also commended Jammu and Kashmir Police and security forces for creating conditions that enabled the Union Territory to host major international sporting events. Chief Secretary Atal Dulloo, Tourism Secretary Avny Lavasa, Divisional Commissioner Kashmir Anshul Garg, IGP Kashmir Sujit Kumar, SSP Srinagar G.V.
