Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], April 5 (ANI): The swimming fraternity in Karnataka on Monday put up a unanimous front with over 600 coaches, members from affiliated clubs, parents and swimmers assembling at Shri Kanteerava Stadium to appeal to the Karnataka government to reopen the swimming pools.
A team from Karnataka Swimming Association (KSA), led by its president retired IPS Gopal Hosur, also met with Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa and put forth their plea to reopen the swimming pools.
"This morning we had a fruitful meeting with the Chief Minister of Karnataka BS Yediyurappa and we also met with Medical Education and Health Minister Dr K Sudhakar and appealed to them to reopen the swimming pools. We have also requested Chief Secretary P Ravi Kumar to consider our plea and allow competitive swimmers to train as a 20-day shutdown will be a major setback for them in an Olympic year. With the new order to keep the pools closed, over 1000 competitive swimmers in the state will be put out of practice. We expect some relief from the government by Tuesday," Hosur said in a press release.
