Why don't India sets up a ‘Sports Fund’ and create a‘Multidisciplinary Academy’ with initial USD 10 Million(Rs. 65 Crore only) by the Centre and USD 250 Million by the ‘Private Hedge Fund’?
The lone individual Olympic gold medallist, Abhinav Bindra, should be made the chairman of the academy, which should have its office bearers coming from different fields and must have been at least a national level players.
The choice of picking up the office bearers shall rest with the ‘Promoters of the Hedge Fund’ and the government.
Did anyone in India ever figure out how much pain, personal resources, and happiness could have been sacrificed by Abhinav Bindra's family to earn India it's only individual ‘Olympic Gold’? Of the job bestowed on those authorities, who have the infrastructure and are still not performing their duties to a good effect, shall be dissolved. Why can’t we give the people's power back to them?
In the end, we, citizens, have to think about our well-being. Then, why we have these highly paid officers and support staff in the first phase.
Making comments on not winning medals is very easy, and it adds agony to the wounds of players whose frustration shows up on the faces after the performances after not making it, but you must appreciate the other nation's efforts and providing needed infrastructure to produce winners out of training sessions. At least to say, India needs a department of commonsense to provide a sports infrastructure.
Speaking about Dipa Karmakar, who came fourth, Abhinav Bindra explains how it’s impressive that Karmakar came fourth or the Indian athletes even qualify for a gymnastic event.
First, Dipa Karmakar’s physiotherapist was not able to travel with her. And was only rushed to Rio after she made the finals, contrary to what has been claimed publicly.
