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.

Change our educations system, encourage students to choose rather than force them, incentivise sports participation, shift focus towards overall development including sports in students rather than making them book worms. Make grounds, encourage parents to be supportive. Job creation for sportsmen in large numbers. Make sports more affordable.

WE HAVE TO CLOSE SEVERAL SCHOOLS WITHOUT A PLAY GROUND.SEVERAL SCHOOLS DO NOT HAVE A PLAY GROUND SPECIALLY PRIVATE INSTTUTIONS WHICH ARE OPERATED FROM CLOSED BUILDING AND THE CHILDREN ARE DEVOID OF PHYSICAL EXERCISE AND PLAY HOURS. PHYSICAL EXERCISES AND OUT DOOR GAMES MAKE CHILDREN FIT MENTALLY & PHYSICALLY TO SERVE THE NATION IN ANY FIELD.TALENTED CHILDREN MAY BE PICKED UP FROM SCHOOL ITSELF BY A DISTRICT LEVEL COMMITTEE AND NURTURED TO BECOME A SUPER PLAYER AND BRING CHEERS TO THE NATION.

1. Allot a subject called 'Games and sports' in school where students can take up one or two 'game or sport'. Allot teaching periods(theory and practice) and marks to these like all compulsory subjects. Scholarship/Job/higher training guarantee for for toppers in this subject. 2. Spreading awareness among parents that sports doesn't kill a student's academic life. Rather it brings discipline and fitness with it. 3. Modern training facilities in every city so that sportsmen can upgrade skills.

In the recent years we have witnessed many leagues in various sports in our country and in terms of their reach out to people they were quite successful.But i believe these leagues should be organised with a motive that what are we going to achieve as the league gets completed.For example if a hockey league(HIL) is organised then the hockey association should have some targets for them which will aid the condition of that particular sports for our country.

Free sports bodies from politicians, sycophants and fiefdoms. Remove these pests from sports administration right from primary school to international arena. Believe me, the rot starts too early. Talent is suppressed for petty gains such as sports quota in jobs etc. Professionals are overshadowed by sycophants. Unless we sow quality seeds, how can we expect glittering gold..

I like to share my view regarding steps to be taken towards development of sports culture, First we should make Sports Authorities free from politicians/non Sports person.It should be headed by Olympics Medalist/World cup team member.No foreign coach needed.Coaches should be from India only.Make sports selection impartial.Selected Players should be paid Stipend and govt should take liabitily,then only the free mind of sportsman will emerge as winner it should be

Sports should be encouraged, right at the school level. Every Lok Sabha Member must be made responsible for sport infrastructure in his constituency. For sports, wherein we do not have much talent, foreign coaches must be encouraged at all levels. IPL style tournaments must be started for each major sports (That will make the sport financially viable, for many who do not make it to the top)
