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.

Our current education system is faulty,its a mere memory test,which needs correction.We need to go back to the gurukul style of education wherein it would include practical application which would encourage innovation and overall skillset development. We need to have more subjects, like agriculture, mechanical engineering at school level,sports and studies should get equal importance.

Parents feels that their children are wasting their time in playing sports, as there is no future as per present condition in India. we need to change this mentality by providing a healthy environment to grow in sports too. there should be open competition in sports at city level than at state level. By open competion , talent will come and then govt should make necessary arrangement to provide basic facilities to potential players, it remove burden from parents and also make them feel proud.

Simple steps for football development in India 1) Revive football in the Indian Army. 2) Give direct entry to East, West, North, South and Central Command teams of the Army in national championship like Santosh Trophy. 3) Give direct entry to Air Force, Navy and All India Police Football tournament's champion team. By increasing participation of the Army teams new zeal for the game will generate. Army works with the grassroot talents & are more sincere than the state football assoictaions

The easiest step that the government can take is to involve more and more successful retired players in sports administration. The Badminton body is a live example of the potential that Indian sports has, provided we have good administration. Putting Gopichand incharge has insured many good players and also increased the standards in all academies around the country.
