Should E-sports Be a Permanent Part of Khelo India Events After Bihar’s BGMI Win?

E-sports has taken the youth by storm, and Bihar’s recent victory in the BGMI (Battlegrounds Mobile India) championship at the Khelo India Youth Games 2025 is proof of that rising trend. While traditional sports still dominate the national sports scene, digital gaming is carving its own space, one battle royale at a time. With millions of gamers across India and rising career opportunities in professional gaming, many are now asking: should e-sports be a permanent fixture at Khelo India?
 
Supporters argue that gaming requires strategy, reflexes, and team coordination—just like physical sports. Critics worry it may shift attention from physical activity. But if India wants to connect with Gen Z and beyond, embracing e-sports could be key. What’s your view? Is this the right direction for Khelo India, or should digital sports remain separate? Cast your vote and let your voice be heard!
