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.

the sports authority organizing a particular league should have particular motives that they will attain as the league ends by directing their various franchise that what they expect from them. The franchise should be asked to get some new talents by giving them good opportunities to play with good players of the world.The franchise should get some of the very young players of under 16 age from their respective states to get training under the staff of the franchise.

Gov. can do one more thing, the sports person will choose youngsters & it is the duty of sports person to give them further training or guidance as a mentor. And salary or increment of this sports person should be depending upon quality of students he/she choose.

In additions top class coaching, competition exposures and sport science and medicine, to improve sport skill we must use Indian herbs including brahmi, shankpushpi, Gorakhmundi, almond, almond etc to get physical and mental power to grow sport spirit. These Ayurvedic herbs are known for the improvements of physical capacity to play .

If we notice the success of IPL, ISL, Pro – Kabbadi, IHL. The people are coming in numbers to watch game. It is really good. I think this is the first step, i.e. Engaging people in sports & motivating sports person. Now the second step is, choose youngsters or students & train them. If we know, story of Tennis player Maria Sharapova, of Russia, her parents had sent little Maria at the age of 10 to USA for training. She was in USA for 6 years & at the age of 16, she comes to play Tennis.

The news paper & digital media should cover the story of all sports. In news paper, they should cover all the sports, they have to give weight age to all sports, they have to give success stories of all sports, the space of article should equal to that of Cricket. In digital media, they should arrange special 30 minutes show, same as they give information of Cricket. The point I want to mention is, give them fame, so obviously youngsters will consider them as idol. And want to become like them.

Schools only should include the physical training subject. In most of the school the P.T period is assumed as Just free time. The School in Pune "Jnana Prabodhini" ; they have the daily routine as the Upasana, studies and the concept of "Dal" which have training for various sports during school hours including worm up. Practice from the begging makes the man perfect...!! Also the facilities for the sports should be enough.

1) I think normally all the sports person gets retired at an age of 35 to 40. If we imagine the personal life of sports person, till he/she retire he/she can’t give time to his/her family & after retirement he/she has plenty of time, with no or very less income source. At the age of 35 – 40, the child of sports person would be around 10-15 years, where total cost of expansion is very high & with low income. I think gov. should improve this.

2) They should prepare pension plan or has to give retired sports person no matter he represent India or not, job security to sports person. O yes, Gov. give job to sports person, but that is only for the athlete who represents India, but what about others. And if we see film Mery Kom, we can see what kind of job offer comes to players. I think the comity who chose players should be a sports person. If sports person gets the authority to choose players, they will choose the right players.

We are already a super power but the "powers" have betrayed this nation for quite long. The basic need for any country to progress in sports is making it mandatory to have a very big school ground of its own with all the sports infrastructure provided along with professionally trained sports teacher/coach. Also children should be given proper diet and strength training so as to excel in sports. Person handling sports should not be a politician please. Motivate sports person to win for Bharat.
