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.

Namaste Sir. Although These Days, the cases of females being abused are heard a bit rarely, but it is hard to imagine when and where such cases erupt. To bring down such cases, it is important that females have security at all times.So for their security, if Martial Art forms, such as Karate, Tae Kwon Do, etc. are introduced at young age in schools, it will serve a dual purpose: Firstly, they will get Exercise and then they can use their techniques as a defence mechanism, when they are in danger

Corporates can be given the task of bringing out the sporta talent of India. Each one can choose thier sports area and should train 10 to 20 people. All colleges should do the same. Intercompetition will happen between corporates and colleges and the top sportsperson will participate in Internation competitions. Play ground should be made must in all schools and colleges.

There should be no recommendation in sports . All Indian sportsmen to have their sports ID Card which should be BCR readable . This should contain their track records medals and Lap timings There should be a centralised system where these can be stored , Escalation of the sportsmen to higher races should be based on their ranking and the amount of effort they have taken . This will prevent misuse of power by some people to get into the national team

Please Make sports central subject keep qualified coaches in school colleges make sports compulsory not to win medals but to make children healthy. Federation should be under control of government most corrupt persons are holding posts for years in federations. Many Unqualified Coaches who don't have any coaching centre experience are national coaches, coaches should be selected on merit to train national teams. Stop National camps start academies in states Set accountability make long term plan

The only way is to identify/select/pick right candidate from whatever source (and not from urban india) you can. It may be from pavements of Caunnaught Place in Delhi (those orphans, who show there talent for there livelihood and are a humiliated lot), or from a fishing pond in the villages of Bengal to kerala, hockey and archery from north east etc. Identification of right candidate is the most important thing and all effort should be made. Then comes training, motivation, money etc.

Many people are blaming cricket for this problem. But it is not correct. There many people who are interested in other sports but they don't get an opportunity or the opportunities are too few. And also many people give up there sport by the time they reach college or even earlier than that.
