Goel said that Sukumar has been a known figure in the world of sports for four decades and his pictures speak louder than words. It is an honour to launch book cum photo exhibition of Sukumar and he feels that photographer’s interest lies in gymnastics given that there are lots of pictures of gymnastics in his exhibition.
Goel further stated that the Ministry will honour people who directly or indirectly promote sports in India – by books, films or other such activities. He said government will open its stadiums for free to those who wish to hold exhibitions related to sports to promote sports.
