Daily Excelsior Readers Write 22/08/16
Up keeping the nation’s pride and rekindling the dwindling hopes, the daughters of India have rewritten the history. A history that merely talks of masculine virtues and potentiality in sports and other outwardly professions.
At the time when India has been witnessing the despair of being medal-less at the Olympics 2016, Dipa Karmakar, Sakshi Malik and PV Sindhu came up as whiff of fresh air for the Indians. Though Dipa failed to clinch the medal by few seconds but the background she hails never was a arena of her game. Sakshi Malik, hailing from a dwelling which considers women as unpleasant omens and being a daughter of a bus conductor daughter, overcame all the roadblocks owing to her dedicated spirits.
Sindhu’s success is a sheer outcome of hard work, passion, determination and immortal zeal. Their successes should undoubtedly be cherished with utmost rejoice but at the same time it should be deemed that earning medals for any nation requires an attitude that encourages the worthiness of sports, proper financing and a professional administrative system. Hope these medals and achievements at global podium induce a wave for reforms in Indian sports.
