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.

Make Sports ministry, bureaucrats and Sports associations more transparent and accountable. This would include publishing financial statements and minutes of meetings every year. Also the officials should be held accountable for any poor performance in any field, and not just the players.

As the parent of two Sports persons who have participated and won medals in the National Level, and have also represented India twice in the World Championships for the sport of Inline Speed Skating, I have these observations to make. 1.

1. when my child participated in a world championship I had to spend 2 lakh out of my pocket for participation towards Flight, accomodation, food, entry fees etc. This is because the federation does not want to affilaite with the government for funds. And this amount also was inflated because the Federation officials pocketed some of the money, and they do not give any accounts for the money spent. .. continued
