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.

It can be improved drastically by giving easy access for general public to olympics. If every individual know that if he have the ability, he can also perform and get a medal for his country, we should understand how many abilities are there in a nation of 1.4 billion. Apart from that benchmarking is also important for participants. Example. A runner should know how fast he have to run to become a world champion, and he will practice accordingly. So participation in Olympics should be made onlin

Government should create separate Department who organise game and althelte program weekly or monthly basis in villages and cities.For good althelte ,created competition at block level and after distric and so . Those participants in such programs give special attention to him/he as certificate or prize. Those well performed ,give him/her special poster face in that city or group of villages or city. We can request to people give donation for improve status and up to date the technology.

Sports are good for mental and physical health. But do not give sports that much of attention that we spend crores and crores. Let them play in the country and out side the country in Olymics etc. But do not mind even when we do not get any ranking. We should pay more and more attention on education based on our ancient and modern knowledge. We want intelligent Indians to do a lot in the field of knowledge.It is laughable to have inferiority complex for not performing well in sports

At present in our we do not have a sports culture and we need to create and develop that culture. We need to create an awareness to the parents about the importance children participating in sporting activities in order to develop both physical and mental health of children. We should develop infrastructure in both rural urban areas for the promotion of sports. We need to drive aggressively to find real talents in their childhood and also develop the potential of the found talent.

India is a country of 1.25 billion people and it is not like that we don not have talent in our country. We have lots of talent but we do not have right mechanism for selection. We have more than 70% population in villages so we should have a sports body at village level from where they can get talented people who are good in gymnastic, wrestling, Athletics etc. Further, we should have a sports body at district and state level where they can further refine and nurture them.

There should be a system for evaluation of sports activities in schools. There are no such competitive events especially in CBSE schools either District level to National level. All schools should be asked to participate in these events. Depending on the student strengths , there should be guidelines for sports facilities, training facilities etc. The eminent sports achievers of each item shall be asked to support at the national and state level coordination of sports activities.
