Khel Yatra: Physical Education and Well-being is NCERT’s Grade 8 textbook developed under the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF-SE) 2023 to promote holistic physical, mental, and emotional development. The book blends theory and practice through six comprehensive units—Foundations of Physical Education, Physical and Motor Fitness, Athletics, Table Tennis, Volleyball, and Yoga—emphasising fitness, teamwork, and mindfulness. It integrates scientific concepts from physics and biology with interactive games and reflective “circle time” discussions to cultivate discipline, resilience, inclusivity, and respect. By aligning with NEP 2020’s vision of experiential and value-based education, Khel Yatra encourages students to explore physical activity as a joyful, lifelong practice for health, well-being, and social harmony.
