In the recently concluded Rio Olympics 2016, India sent its largest ever Olympic contingent comprising of 118 athletes. Despite the large number of athletes, the Indian contingent managed to bag only 2 medals in the Games viz., one Silver medal in Badminton and one Bronze medal in Wrestling. Considering the size of our country it can be said that the present performance was not up to the country’s potential. Views/suggestions are invited on what specific steps need to be taken to realise full sporting potential of India in forthcoming Olympics in 2020, 2024 and 2028.

I think the Indian Armed Forces have huge talent that is well trained and can easily win multiple medals at Olympics. Indian Army can support and nurture sportspersons for events like shooting, weightlifting, wrestling, judo, taekwondo, equestrian, athletics, cycling, fencing etc. Indian Navy can support and nurture sportspersons for events like swimming, diving, sailing, canoeing, rowing, marathon swimming, synchronized swimming, water polo etc.

We are really too much focused on cricket. First step is identifying sports where there are possibilities of multiple Olympic medals i.e. shooting, swimming, athletics, weightlifting, wrestling, boxing, gymnastics, cycling, diving etc. Second step is identifying top talent in these sports at National level. Third step is helping these sportspersons with the best of coaching, infrastructure and monetary sponsorship. Fourth step is the promise of huge monetary rewards for all Olympic medalists.

We are very focused on cricket, when it comes to infrastructure/coaching/sponsorships etc. and even while selecting a team that goes to a particular region of the world. Similar efforts needs to be done in other sports. We need to learn from China/US/UK on how they invest and groom athletes. Let us bring Olympic winners to train our athletes as well and have organizations similar to BCCI focusing on other sports.

In respect to improve the mega sports events, I want to suggest that, sports grounds and related infrastructure facilities should be provided in all the cities and also in grams level, The training of each play should be given primarily from school , the coaches should be encouraged to prepare the players for such mega games, further, during the specific interval, competition like khel mahotsav etc. should be done by which the real tellant and players can be found and selected for such game,thnk
