The 38th edition of the National Games will be held from January 30 to February 14.

The National Games 2025 is currently underway in Uttarakhand, which also happen to be the state’s debut as host for the country’s premier multi-sport event, featuring over 10,000 athletes with 32 disciplines contested across multiple venues.

The 38th edition of the Games which will run from 28 January to 14th February, opened with the triathlon events where Manipur, who finished seventh in the National Games 2023 drew first blood in the medal tally when Sarungbam Athouba Meitei clinched gold in the men’s individual triathlon.

But that is not all! The 2023 Games champion, Maharashtra have quickly established its presence too with Dolly Devidas Patil securing the women’s individual triathlon title, before leading her state to victory in the mixed relay alongside teammates Parth Sachin Miraje, Kaushik Vinay Malandkar, and Mansi Vinod Mohi.

All the states are battling for the coveted Raja Bhalindra Singh Trophy, awarded to the overall champion state (Who finish with most Gold Medals).

In recent times Services has been able to dominate the trophy, but Maharashtra had its say in 2023 and the hosts have not done too bade too in last couple of editions, at least that is what Historical data suggests that hosts often tend punch above their weight.

The pattern has been clearly visible since the Games’ inception and was clearly notable when Kerala clinched championship honors in 1987 as hosts, and more recently when Jharkhand leaped from 15th position to fifth place when organizing the 2011 edition and now, Uttarakhand will look to do better too, after a dismal run in 2023, finishing at 25th with 24 medals.
