Manishankar - Yet another humiliation

Former senior congress leader Manisankar Iyyer left Delhi after his controversial statement against Common Wealth Games Delhi. He remarked that he will be very sad if the game become a success. What he mentioned that - We are not expected to spend such a huge amount of money for Common Wealth Games and this amount should spend fro the poor village people and for the sports infrastructure development. This may be a creative but desperate suggestion. In the middle of this humiliation he escaped from India to Iyerland and proclaimed that I am not in a mood to attend this game.
What I found in this remark is that we are spending huge amount of money for development aspects that are also deal with rural, employment, health etc. and it is also in a progress stage. In addition to this we are optimistic that we can achieve a major slice of pie of Millennium Development Goal (MDG) before 2015. Along with  this we should spend sufficient amount of money in sports development in India, identify and train qualified sportsmen, equal importance for all items, avoid over importance of cricket etc. should be our major objective. We are countiniously  out of major games and that may be because of  lack of competency and training.Another stark fact is that the Olympic medal for medicine was grabbed only by the personal efforts and investments of athletes. 

Obviously it the time to give more focus on sports and regain Hockey world cup, play Foot ball world cup and gain sufficient medals in Olympics. The positive shift of developing sports infrastructure like sports injury center, training center, rejuvenation center etc are paving way to build the sports potential of India.
