Tokyo 2020 has ended as a watershed moment in the history of Indian sports, with its biggest ever haul of 7 medals. Our country has taken another glorious step towards becoming a truly sporting Nation. The manner in which Indian sport persons approached the Olympics, marks the dawn of a New Era- An era in which India proves Fearless. Legends like Milkha Singh, PT Usha and Anju Bobby George dared to dream of a medal in Athletics in the past.
Young Neeraj Chopra dared to make that dream come true by achieving a Gold Medal in Athletics after almost 125 Years. The forgettable days of Hockey are over. The Indian men’s and women’s Hockey Teams put on a valiant effort and restored the Pride and Glory of the game. Students once again will choose to play and honour the National Game of India.
In disciplines like Wrestling, Badminton, Boxing and Weightlifting, we continue to bask in medals. But what’s really exciting is the fact that doors to many other events were opened like Golf and 4 X 100 Meter relay. This set the Asian Record at the Olympics. People were glued to the TV screens to support our Athletes with a Zestful emotion of Patriotism. Let this spirit never die. Encourage students to choose Sports. There’s as much Honour in representing India in sports as there is in choosing any other Profession. Let’s Live Sports! Jai Hind!
