Sir,

            Games and sports reflect the pulse of a national. We are living in a fast changing world. In the past, India prided herself in games like hockey and football and claimed supremacy in these games. Things change and many Asian and European countries stole a march over India. Nearer home, Pakistan stands big in the way of India’s success in Hockey and Cricket. There is no denying the fact that India has lost its hold on the games she earlier excelled in. in sports and athletic too, India’s performance does not make a good reading.

            India had to lick defeat in Hockey both at Olympics and at World Cup Tournament held during the last two decades. It appears that India would never be able to claim supremacy in this game. In Football, India’s performance has been far from satisfactory. In sports and athletics too,  India’s tally is not worth its name. the days of Milkha Singh and P.T. Usha are fast fading.

            India is a vast country with a rich potential. People here are quite hard-working and sports-loving. Still, the standard of sports in this country is low. Something must be done to arrest the declining standards of games in this country. Games and sports should be introduced as a compulsory subject in schools and colleges. Selection of players must be free and fair. Good players should be given due encouragement without any bias or prejudice. Outstanding players should be selected at the trial. Players should be taught to play in the team spirit. Intensive training in games and sports should be given at coaching centers.

            It is high time that steps were taken to improve the standard of games and sports in this country. The sooner it is done, the better it is.

Yours faithfully,

Ila Joshi.
