It was owing to inclement weather conditions while travelling from Dharamsala to Manali that the Chief Minister made a brief stop en route. During the halt, the Chief Minister played cricket with local children, who were overjoyed to have the CM amongst them and play cricket with them.

The Chief Minister said that the state government was laying special emphasis on sports promotion in Himachal Pradesh. “Our endeavour is to provide good sporting facilities at the village level so that we can spot talent at a young age and hone them to make a mark at the national and international level,” said the CM.
