Union Minister of Power and New & Renewable Energy,RK Singh announced the opening of a World Class Kayaking and Canoeing Academy which is to be inaugurated in the state of Uttarakhand.
The aim behind establishing this academy is to promote the water sports in the country and encourage the youth to take up the same.
Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami also inaugurated the National Championship “Tehri Water Sports Cup” at Tehri Lake.
Tehri was a small town situated at the confluence of Bhagirathi and Bhilangana rivers in Uttarakhand.
The city was submerged in water to create a large catchment area and thus the old Tehri city became the Tehri Lake, the largest man-made lake in Asia.
