PM Modi will interact with the Indian contingent set to fly to Birmingham for the Commonwealth Games 2022 on July 20 via video conferencing, his office said on Monday.
Athletes, as well as coaches, will attend the interaction which, the Prime Minister's Office said, is part of his continuous endeavour to motivate athletes ahead of their participation in major sporting
events.
Last year, Modi interacted with the contingent of Indian athletes for the Tokyo Olympics as well as the para-athletes who participated in the Paralympic Games.
The CWG 2022 is scheduled to be held in Birmingham from between July 28 and August 8. A total of 215 athletes, participating in 141 events across 19 sporting disciplines, will represent India in the mega sporting event.
