From
the
Editor
Two
recent happenings have catapulted
India's image to a new high. The first
being the Ayodhya verdict. The balanced
judgment was welcomed by one and all.
Besides, the political parties,
religious heads and the general public
behaved very positively towards the
historical judicial pronouncement. This
welcome change has strengthened the
country's secular credentials and it is
rightly termed as “The Triumph of
Sanity”.
The second happening being the
successful conduct of XIX Commonwealth
Games by India against all odds and
among the worst fears of country's image
receiving a severe beating. Apart from
India's 2nd ranking in winning the
medals, the organization of the event
too boosted our image globally. The
euphoria should not, however, make us
complacent.
The wonderful performance by Indian
sportspersons has re-iterated the fact
that India has no dearth of talent, but
it needs to be nurtured carefully by the
coaches. Besides, the Government must
release adequate funds for the process
to be implemented with enthusiastic
zest.
A great number of Gagan Narangs
and Saina Nahewals are waiting for their
latent talent to be released by the
fullest support from their families, the
Government, some dedicated organizations,
and the coaches who would mentor and
guide them to unfold the potential they
possess.
With greetings,
