The Punjab State Sports Council started a program Scheme of pension for eminent sports persons (Punjab) to give money each month to veteran athletes. These athletes did great things for India when they were young at big international competitions.
This program is important for the Punjab State Sports Council for sports. It shows talented athletes that if they become champions at big international competitions, the Punjab State Sports Council will support them with money each month for their whole life.
Athletes spend their best years focusing hard on training, instead of other opportunities. The monthly money is to compensate for the opportunities they missed to reach their high goals and success in sports.
The money each month will be for their whole life. If they die, their wife/husband or parents can keep getting the money.
