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.

Suggestions for positioning India as a Sporting Superpower are: 1. Develop PPP models by focusing on promotion, creation and building sports infrastructure, culture and talent in India. 2. Explore management rights of existing sports infrastructure with corporates. 3. Incentivize corporates to invest more in sporting games by announcing specific policy favouring private funding in sports business. (2/4)

In addition to government guaranteeing a secure future for sports persons, mechanism should be developed to eliminate nepotism, favouratism and corruption in selection and training of sports persons. Standard Operating Procedures should be formulated and strictly made to follow. Incentives should be very attractive and declared in advance for highest achievers.

Identifying the talent and induction at an early stage,that is as a child and full time training for a particular sport can produce world champions. In such cases formal education has to be sacrificed. In case of not making big in sports this lack of formal education will make the individual ineligible for any job and thus an insecure future. Therefore in such cases vocational training at government expenses should be given and job should be assured. Guarantee of a secure future is a must.

Sir, In order to make India a sports superpower, I suggest following:- 1. National Games should be bifurcated in two (i.e. Indoor games & Outdoor Games) and the same should be held every alternate year (i.e. National Indoor game 1st year and next year National Outdoor game). 2. Same should be followed by every state i.e. State level Indoor Games & State level outdoor games. 3. Lastly, Every District should organize district level competition of one indoor game & outdoor game.

Create a catalouge of goverment and private sports facilities and coachs across India. This should make it easy for layman to find nearest training facility or approach a coach to pursue training. Also make the platform social so people can upload photos and give there feedback. This can be done in partnership with yellow pages kind of private company and sports authority of India. I am willing to personally contribute to make this happen.

To make india sporty we need of equality that is why recently our blind cricket team have won the worldcup , but there is no one come to support them ,if in that place Indian team won the worldcup then every politician ,corporate sector came for congratulation them announce gift to them in money. that 's why people said india is for politician and hindustan for those people who service to every people of his nation.

I think we should start first with ensuring that our kids are healthy and strong. A national food pyramid ( similar to European pyramid ; internet Link - https://www.littlesteps.eu/images/uploads/foodpyramid.jpg) should be established and communicated across schools.

Better to initiate good money incentives from school and colleges itself ! Ensure National Games is organized every year. Apart from National Games - organizing ZONAL Level sports by dividing India among 29 States and 7 Union Territories into 4 groups of each 9 Entities. Using Sports Icons like Paes, Bhaichung,Sania,Saina,Anand,Bindra,Sushil etc to inspire studies to make sports as career ! Sponsoring,Marketing and adverte should start investing in sports starting from school and colleges.
