National Sports Awards are conferred on individual sportspersons and institutions every year as a recognition of contribution in the field of sports.
Rashtriya Khel Protsahan Puraskar is given to corporate entities - private as well as public sectors - and individuals who have played a visible role in the area of sports promotion and development.
The names of the awardees were declared by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports and will be conferred by President Ram Nath Kovind at a function through the virtual mode from Rashtrapati Bhawan on August 29.
