Can't the Indian Government just bribe Michael Phelps of USA to renounce the American Citizenship and take Indian citizenship ? This way, we can at least win around 20 to 22 medals and we don't even have to spend on other athletes. If Bollywood can employ Hollywood technicians and boast to produce "world-class movies", can't Indian Government do the same?

In that case they must go to BJP ruled states like Assam and J & K, as beef is freely available there.

Khachchar is a true inheritor of the Devilal, chautala culture and we expected BJP to be a party with a difference.
Dear Fellow Citizens, Unless the Govt. & We the public encourages and give good support to Hocky, Food ball,Tennis, Batmitten and other Games similar to Cricket, It is very difficult to get Medals. It is felt that if Govt. give vigourous Training & Encourage young potential Sports persons specific from North East states, We sure to get Medals. 'Gangadharan, Bengaluru'
give ears to all what milkha singh said.kick vijay goel out and set rajyavardhan singh rathore as sports minister.with an appropriate person from each sport as his subordinate.
200 odd people and returns of 2 medals!Also...good to see a few in a miniscule category like the commentors here who will surface once in 4 years just to sound cool about supporting olymipians. Check out cricket forums..there will be atleast 500 comments, proving how passionate we Indians are about supporting people who actually win stuff, and then talk. World no1 ranking, world cups,legends like SRT, virat, dhoni who are respected worldwide. Even Federer said he's a fan of Sachin! No wonder we celebrate cricketers who have brought so much glory and world cups to the nation. A billion of us will celebrate our cricket heroes, as we are sensible enough to know who our true heroes are and who are the people going to Rio just for sightseeing. You can be in that small group cheering these guys. Cheers! Another who comes close is Sania...who has multiple grand slams. Rest are all one season wonders , or they win nothing despite talking much!

L0L. Look at the support which cricket has got, compare with other sports. Cricket is a team game played against very few countries unlike games like wrestling, boxing, tennis, etc. Unless morons start appreciating and recognising other sports seriously, you can come and crib like this once in 4 years.

I agree Cricket is hardly played among 20-25 nations. If we had 100 nations playing serious cricket, then we would see how many world cups would India have won. This is not to take away anything from SRT, Dhonis, Virats, Gangulys, Laxmans or Dravids but we have to accept the reality. Any sport where more than 60-70 nations play the sport seriously like football, tennis, badminton, boxing, gymnastics, swimming, water sports, cycling, Marathon, Atheletics just look at the record Indians have in the last 70yrs. It is pathetic.
