Six Billion and One Bronze!

Hi friends,

I think for this there are two main reasons among them first is lack of exposure to the most talented people who are in remote areas and the other is the politics in the selection of candidates which is why the parents whose children are quite talented are not coming into sports because they don't have any political help so they don't want to risk their child career. There may be other reason also which is ours is a cricket mad country so people won't even follow other sports.

So finally if we can keep the selection process free of politics then parents will feel secured about their children career and encourage them to go into sports. This must be done because ours is a country which has a vast talent its getting wasted so now the time is ripe to do everything to stop that.

Thank you.

My point of view on this topic is due to lack of encouragement from the government India is not performing well in world stage. Government don't encourage sports in our country. Due to corruption and corrupted people in government sports is taking a back seat in India. And one more important thing in our country is that parents don't encourage sports in our country. They think academics is more important than sports. Parents think that sports don't fetch children luxurious life so they don't encourage their children to indulge in sports. And more important thing is that there is nepotism in government sports bodies so their favor their relatives than deserved people.

I think if Indian government abet sports people with enough equipment and encourage them with good environment then only India will be performing better in world stage.

Hello friends,

According to my point of view, there is no proper infrastructure and facilities for sports person in India and they do not get proper treatment after injuries.

There is no any particular scholarship for sports person.

The tendency of people about sports should change. Then and then only, we will win more medals for our country.

6 million people and one bronze and a silver. I don't think we need to blame your parents for insisting us to do what they want us to do. It's simple they want our future to be secured. It would be them who will get hurt seeing their children with their dreams broken.

Now talking about politics in sports. If politics is removed from the field of sports then I think there are hundred and thousands of Sachin, PV Sindhu, Sania mirza that we can get from each 'gully'.

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 this is important topic to be discussed. We have many talented people in all fields. But the problem lies in the fact that importance is given to one sport mainly cricket. Of course we should encourage cricket but at the same time we should give equal importance to other sports also. We can't forget or neglect our national game 'Hockey'. Its sad that almost all from young generation prefer cricket first than others. Young generation should know more about all the games other than cricket in India.

And also I think lack of coaching cent res in India is the main reason for this. Because many poor children are really good and talented in sports but due to poor coaching they could not show their talents at the higher levels and shine.

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.

Hi,
According to my opinion.

Firstly, due to lack of role models in our country to encourage different sports is the biggest reason of lagging behind in sports. Up to certain effect media is also responsible for this because they give hike only to the cricketers and have made cricket religion of this billion nation.

Secondly, no encouragement in the form of money, award, infrastructure etc. From the government.

Thirdly, lessons praising academics and against sports are also one of the reasons.

What I believe is that at present there are many talents in India but they are not able to participate at the international level just because of financial conditions. It was in the past that parents did not allow their children to participate in sports and aim it as his/her carrier. Today even parents are encouraging their children to participate in sports and other extra curricular activities along with studies. It is just because of money they are not able to disclose their talent I n front of the world. Even though India is a developing country and there are many millionares or billionares like Mittal, Ambani, Tata, Birla, etc. Still the poor are poorer. So, the talent cannot come forward. Thus, the requirement is that all the Indians should get united and try to encourage talent and help those talents who have financial problems so that India can also compete with the rest of the world and be in the top position.

Hello gentleman.

The primary reason for the poor state of the nation in sports is the apathy on the part of the sports governing authorities. One key reason for that is most of the top positions in such authorities are occupied by bureaucrats rather then those who knows about sports. This results in very poor coordination in top level and the grassroots level sports authorities.

Lack of funds is invariably cited as the prime factor. But the fact that no amount of funds can be adequate for the purpose due to corruption in these bodies. Lack of proper infrastructure is another factor. The qualities of grounds in India is generally pathetic. This is because they are not conditioned regularly to be in the best shape. Any money if apportioned for the care and up-gradation of the grounds and stadiums does not reach its intended target.

Lack of motivation among players is another factor in India other sportsmen than cricketers are paid peanuts. The media is also to blame for the poor condition of games and sports in the nation sports other than cricket rarely get adequate coverage.

The whole scenario points to the flaws that are hindering the progress of our nation in the domain of sports.
