Ya its a really a sad story that a country which ranks 2nd in terms of population in the world just brings one medal in the Olympics.

This is mainly because of lack of infrastructure being provided for the development of other sports besides cricket also people should turn their attention to other games rather than cricket and also the media should play a important role in the promotion of other sports.

This is just like the question, " Which came first, the egg or the hen?" as we can neither blame the politicians or the sportspersons. Politicians are more concerned about their party and votes. On the other hand there are only few daring youngsters who go for sports as their careers. In India, any sports other than cricket is considered as waste of money, time and life by many of the parents. They always want their kids to become engineers and doctors. Children who are good at sports are discouraged by their parents. The worst part is, when a person faces all the ordeals and determines to come up as a sportsperson, there would be no sponsors for him at all.

Recently, a young tennis player got a chance to go abroad and play tennis but the passport authority failed to provide him with a visa.

So, we cannot blame a specific group of people for the lack of sportspersons in India. Instead we can encourage the upcoming talents and expect them to bring glory to India in various sports.

Don't blame only the politics. We are lacking of winning youth in our country. Hard Determination to excel has vanished from their mind because of Hip Hop and Western Life Style ( only followed in Dressing & odd Relationships). Rememnber Great Milkha Singh, P.T.Usha, Dhanraj Pillay who just kept working hard to make it.

We can donate to Swamis and Deras but cannot contribute for deserving sportsmen at our level where politics has nothing to do with. We also have to take the responsibilty as politicians do not increase the population at 1 child / 2 second. We have to blame ourseleves that increasing population is snatching sources and opppurtunities.

This is really a good topic to be discussed .Our country has large number of youth but one gold in Olympic. It does not mean that there is no talented persons. The reason is that their talent is not used properly. At present if we take the sports famous personalities like Sania, Saina, Naren and others, they have a good economical background, hence they go up easier.



There are many champions in our country among us and their economy is very bad. Suppose if they come up by adjusting the situation, the next one is our politics and politicians.



The higher officials in the field of sports are person who dont know about sports.If the situation changes we will be the toppers in this field too.



There is another way also the famous sports personalities can sponser the juniors who are economically bad with full interest and skill. If they do so we can achieve in sports also...

Yes. In India every sports club having president, but if you see his sports background definitely it will be zero because they are politicians. They doesn't know anything about the game but they selecting teams. They give importance only to their friends and other party members.



The best solution is eradicate politics from sports and give importance to talents, then definitely six billion people 100 golds.

For this topic I would blame Indian politics, because we are having more population, more brilliant people than so many countries. But our Indian politics is going back of money. So we lost so many medals not only in sport and other too. If they all working for nation and not going back of money our India will be the first in all the place with in a year.
