Volunteers will play an important role in making all kinds of arrangements during the National Games. Our effort is to prepare a volunteer data base during this event. In this sequence, complete details of the concerned person should be available with us. We will provide necessary information to every person who registers. We will tell what kind of role a volunteer plays. After the data base is prepared, whenever there will be a need for volunteers for a big event in future, they will be easily available.”
