It is an eye opener for all, she is a brave heart,I salute her. We search for sportsman but we dont know how to encourage and support them.We spend millions on one sport and render others penniless, there are innumerable cases where our heros are forced to literaly beg a living. Why this desparity there should be a uniform system to support these glorious persons when they really need the nations help and support. I appeal to the Govt. and the people to respect their valour and honour them with love and extend help for survival.
What is wrong if she clean floor for living or if someone is driver, tea stall worker, labour, mine worker etc. they have also equal right to be athlete....my 9am to 5pm job is much more stressful then my Gardner

Singh, your stress has taken toll of your brain. It is not the position it is the income of a person who is more talented than many others doing jobs better than hers or equal to hers. You should have declared your salary as well as your gardener's. You must agree that the slary when compared to the stress levels of yours and gardners you are getting very high salary than really deserve.

Dear Mr.Singh,
Its not about the position of your job; its about the earnings you are getting by doing your job. May be she is getting only your 5 days salary for whole month of her work. The poor Indians cannot afford to think about any other activities other than food and shelter. So this is a great achievement as far as i concerned.

Its ironic but our so call emerging SUPER POWER INDIA still can't give basic amenities to athletes.They just can't recognise talent,forget respect.The so-called govt. bodies like NRAI,etc. are just eye wash.To HELL with this country and its people.

whole problem is why we even have a sports ministry and wasting taxpayers money ?
It's far better if private players step in and sponsor atheletes.
D. Goel Pkl. afternoon, 4.15pm, Monday, 18th Jan. , 2010. I am appalld to read the sad tale of this Lady Gopi Rajam who was for Mumbai Marathon at your Office ,now in her old age of (53) with all her old Medals and CiCations and yet sweeping Floors to survive! I hear Kochi is Abig Industrial Centre.No one WHY has the heart to give her some respectable Work for consideration of her contribution to Sports.A sad Ruthless Nation, Anyway. D. Gol
Media is sleeping for so many years. They are only supporting high profiles and hot subjects. They are working for money and not for country.... how they insulted sachin... cleaning is a job. And one must proud about it. She is professional and self earning. But media ...oh sheet....worst than bollywood third grade artist.
PEOPLE ON THE BLOG JUST MAKE MOCKERY OF MALAYALEES, BUT MALAYALEES ARE FAR AHEAD IN TERMS OF MONEY SPENDING, HEALTHWISE, EDUCATIONWISE, CLEANLINESS (TAKING TWO TIMES BATH) WHICH IN MOST PART OF NATION DOES NOT HAPPEN, TEETH MOSTLY WHITE AS THEY DO NOT EAT OR CHEW PAAN LIKE OTHERS. DRINKING TOO MUCH IS A MAJOR PROBLEM BEING CONFRONTED BY KERALA. INDUSTRIES DOES NOT COME TO KERAL ONLY BECAUSE OF UNIONISM AND COMMUNIST OR CONGRESS GOVERNMENTS HELL-BENT ON DESTROYING KERALA. OR OTHERWISE, IT IS ONE OF THE MOST PEACEFUL STATE IN THE WHOLE NATION. KERALITES DON'T DEPEND ON ANYBODY AS KERALITES VENTURE OUT FAR FROM HIS/HER NATIVE EVEN TO THE REMOTEST AREAS OF THIS VERY UNIVERSE AND BRING IN MUCH-NEEDED FOREIGN EXCHANGE. KERALITES ARE NOT LIKE LAZY LAGGARD THAT OTHER STATE PEOPLE ARE LIKE. ONLY DUE TO KERALITES ONLY, DUBAI AND OTHER GULF COUNTRIES ARE SHINING TODAY. TODAY KERALA STANDS ATOP ON ANY HUMAN INDEX. AS ON TODAY, IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SECTOR, 17% OF WORK-FORCE ARE FROM KERALA. THEREFORE, KERALA IS FAR AHEAD THAN MANY MANY STATES AND COUNTRY.

That's a great soothing words from your honest mouth. Thank you.
You all are blaming cricket for all this please dont do that the problem is our government system which is terrible. Our ministers and bureaucrats never encourage any sports and if cricket would have been in the hands of government it would have been in the same state as hockey. We dont lack talent we only lack good policies and governance. And please dont blame cricket we should be thankful that cricket is not in the hands of government otherwise they would have ruined cricket and cricketers too like other sports and sportperson.
