India as people tell is not a fit for nothing country. According to Olympics people blindly believe that India is not capable. The truth is India is better than the medal winning countries and it could do better..... It is right to discuss what india missed instead of asking what it lacked.
- In the first international Olympics participated by India , only athlete to participate was Norman Pritchard and he won two silver medals in athletic events.
- India consecutively won 6 Olympic gold medals in the game of hockey starting from 1928 which was even before the time of independence.
-The last Olympic gold in hockey was on 1980 in the Moscow Olympics. That is when the downfall of Indian hockey team took root.
The reason are many out of which few can be noted.
- Apart from blaming the government, it was the declining sense of patriotism in the minds of the youths who valued money more than fame.
- Who wish to win are not always allowed. Madhuli Kulkarni of ALTIUS Centre for Excellence in Delhi speaks about the discouragement parents give to their own children to put them to routine and the so called SAFE ZONE.
It is always not a one man fault for letting the flame go down. So stop blaming. Lets move some rocks together. The Constitution is FOR THE PEOPLE and let's remind them that.
