India has been making steady progress in the field of sports, but it has potential to do much more. If right steps are taken towards development of sports culture, integration of sports and education, early spotting of talent, strong support to sportspersons through top-class coaching, competition exposures, sports science and sports medicine support, etc., India can emerge as a sports super power.

Views are invited on what specific steps need to be taken.

11) Again, Sports ministry should be run by a professional minister, not by a pure politician. Either some sports expert or some ex-sportsmen. Make them accountable to give results in a fixed time frame. 12) Again its not all about getting gold at olympics. It's about improving infrastructure, improving competition level at state level and national level. Its about Asian games, Commonwealth games, Youth olympics, Paralympics etc

8) Sports should be free from quota, reservation. It is all about performance irrespective of caste, status and political connections. 9) In all those years for me Sports ministry looks like a irrelevant post which has no powers at all. Give move powers to sports ministry to look after overall status of all the sports related activity in India. 10) Don't neglect children, women and physically challenged ppl in decision making policies for sports, its not all about making money.

5) Improve the infrastructure for our stadiums, start from basics, encourage parents, children to take sports right from primary schools. Give extra credit points for performers in sports not quota. 6) Remove politicians from Sports, we have achieved nothing since independence in any sports except individual performances that too because they all were free from politicians. 7) Let each sports body run by the former sportsman of that game at-least for 2yrs.

2) Sportsmen in India are still treated like good for nothing except Cricket. Although we are/were world no. 1 at some point of time in Hockey, Badminton, Chess, Kabaddi etc. 3) There is no infrastructure available for physically challenged athletes, their conditions we have just seen some days back at national meet in U.P 3) All the sports body of our country are controlled or i should say Ruled by the so called politicians ( few are for more than 20yrs at top post), remove this mess

Dear PMO, i heard the news just recently now that India would like to bid for 2024 olympics. Well if we get a chance to organize the biggest sporting event in the world we all would be honoured. But there are some basis issues we should take care before trying to show that we are as equal as China. 1) When olympics held in China, they were at top of medal list. We don't want to look like fool that we organised the olympics and didn't even get a single gold medal.

Our athletes should be sponsored by the govt to train abroad to improve their skills. China grooms its gymnasts from their childhood. Diet and nutrition experts should be hired to ensure their fitness at international levels.

. I suggest starting “Veer Bharat” campaign and enrolling each and every young boys & girls in it. These daughters & sons of India will get training in different sports of their choice and after attaining a definite time they can join any organisation and serve the country in better way.

Youths have tremendous energy in them which can transform this country into super power in every field. But most of the youth energy wasted in alcohol, drugs, street fighting, road accident and many social evils like cast and religion intolerances. This energy can be tapped and used in sports by government by giving youths of this country a platform right from their childhood.
