Indian society and govt - too inferior

We came as 4th spot in medal tally in Asian games but we are not even in top 10 in Olympics in Asia. Why no player shows determination to win gold medal. Maybe reason is the mentality of players that if they win any medal they will get crores of rupees, promotions, cars, govt jobs and what not. Look at the players of other countries they do not get anything still they won gold medals. Does this show weak mentality of our players except for some. Should govt not provide these much compensation to them or what's the reason?

India’s Olympic medal tally is such a shame.

I have seen almost every event this olympics live or through highlights. Heck I saw even the qualifiers for all our athletes. What happened truly bums me out. The several 4th place finishes. What happened with Vinesh Phogat. And then Neeraj being unable to win gold (we should not expect a gold from someone twice, he is already a legend). But the heart wants more (yeh dil maange more). A) I don't want to say it's our athletes. Suddenly everyone is spreading that narrative, that they don't have a winning mentality. Look. One athlete may not have it. But several? This is their fucking lives. If you were in their position, would you not try your hardest? So aren't they trying their hardest? B) I don't nearly know enough to blame it on our government or our facilities. Sure, they would suck. But it hurts to see Pakistan and North Korea above us. So I won't take the resources argument. C) The truth is. In a nation of 1.4 billion, we produced 0 golds. China in a similar economic condition (1990s) used to get 20-30 medals easy. It's us. All of us. Let's focus on sports. We have got to do better. I am not a parent today, I will be tomorrow. I promise to: - Encourage my kids to take up sports, and support them fully through it if they want to - Not be that society uncle who keeps the football when it goes near them We can only do our part. Cheers.

India is currently 63rd place in 2024 Paris Olympics medal table , which is lower end of table.india despite being no.1 population, good GDP and ongoing process to become one of the super power of world why we POORLY lack in sports . Usa , china , Britain , australia, Germany , France are just leagues apart from us in Olympics, countries like new zealand, irland , Brazil and many countries very small , relatively unknown countries too have more medals than us Why is it what's the case , pls give ur thoughts about it below 👇

Hi all, I have been wondering for the past few days, why we have such a poor sporting culture in our country? China used to be like us in the 80s, with very few medals in the Olympics (if I consider the Olympics medals as a metric). But they worked really well and efficiently towards the problem by forming clusters of games, healthy competition, focusing on more medal oriented sports (badminton, swimming for instance). I wonder if it is only government policies and bureaucracy which has destroyed the sports culture? What are other things which we can correct at our level if possible? Or do we continue like this only in the future? Thoughts!?

😭😭😭😭😭

Despite being #1 in population, I find vaccuum in Imp Fields like - Politics - no great politician - Media - no great journalist - Music - very few great artists like A.R.R - Movies - Bollywood is struggling - Sports - Except cricket other all sports suffering - Innovation- Hardly any pathbreaking companies.. & So on… If you agree what are the reasons for this? Are we just focused on playing it safe and earning money ? Or there are no role models to follow?

India's unstoppable rise in tech and innovation makes the West's decline clear. Yet immigration number always baffles me - are we being shortsighted? 🤔
