Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya Unveils FIFA World Cup 2026 Trophy
The iconic trophy returned to India after 12 years as part of its global Trophy Tour, ahead of the upcoming 23rd edition of the FIFA World Cup. It will be on further display for fans in Delhi for two more days and then for a day in Guwahati.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr Mansukh Mandaviya said, “Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, sports has emerged as a national priority. We firmly believe that sports is a powerful instrument for nurturing discipline, confidence, and character, particularly among our youth. The FIFA World Cup Trophy Tour resonates strongly with our aspiration to position India among the world’s top five sporting nations by 2047. As India advances on its journey towards becoming a Viksit Bharat (Developed India) by 2047, sports will stand as a vital pillar of nation-building and youth empowerment.”
