Deputy Chief Minister and Minister for Revenue, Youth Empowerment and Sports G. Parameshwara on Sunday announced that the cash prizes for winners of the annual Dasara sports meet would be increased.

Inaugurating the Dasara Sports Meet-CM Cup 2026 at the Chamundi Vihar Indoor Stadium here, he said sports had been an integral part of Dasara celebrations, with the Vijayanagara rulers and the Mysuru Wadiyars patronising sporting activities.

The State government was committed to encouraging sportspersons and had announced cash awards of ₹1 crore for gold medallists, ₹75 lakh for silver medallists and ₹50 lakh for bronze medallists who excel in international sporting events, he said.
