Sports Commission

The craze for cricket is not limited to watching the game but has possessed mindset. This is evident by the kind of noise visible on entire media about the game and scandals. It seems as if nothing is important in India apart from cricket. Forget common man, even politicians are occupying positions in cricket. Anything out of proportion is disorder. In fact this is the cause of the kind of scandals cricket has witnessed.

For a healthy mindset, there must be balanced growth of other games and sports. Sufficient attention must be given to hockey, football, volleyball, basketball, gymnastic, swimming, athletics even new games like rugby and baseball. Just like human beings look better with all round development, countries look better with all round development in all fields. And why we are not doing that? Are we not capable? What do we lack? Its the - Attitude.

People of India are capable of being the best in the world. The only thing that is stopping is the lack of well organized wholesome growth oriented attitude. This is what we need to quickly work on. We must develop organizations for different games and sports with greater public participation. Other games need sufficient push at this stage to set them rolling.

Sports have the capacity to uplift nation in many ways:
- Promotes unity
- Promotes attitude and spirits
- Promotes health
- Promotes activity capacity
