Chairman Dr. Kanishka Pandey had the privilege of meeting V. K. Singh — Hon’ble Governor of Mizoram, former Chief of the Army Staff, and one of India’s most distinguished military leaders.
A decorated soldier, strategist, administrator, and public servant, General Singh’s journey reflects discipline, leadership, and an unwavering commitment to nation-building.
The interaction revolved around the immense sporting potential of the North East and the role that the FICCI Sports Committee and various stakeholders can play in building a stronger and more structured sporting ecosystem in the region.
The North East possesses extraordinary passion, natural talent, resilience, and sporting spirit. With stronger grassroots systems, sports education, infrastructure, talent pathways, and long-term vision, the region can emerge as one of India’s greatest sporting powerhouses — not merely in terms of medals, but as a model of how sports can transform communities, youth aspirations, identity, and regional development.
