Hail the 3 Musketeers of Indian Sports (Abhinav Bindra, Vijender Singh& Sushil Kumar ).
India has finally won more than 2 medals in their entire olympic history. The 3 Musketeers has done our country proud by wining medals at the largest sporting extravanganza on the Planet Earth i.e Olympics .
There were many first to happen for India at the 2008 Summer Olympics at Beijing i.e India's First ever Individual Gold Medalist in Abhinav Bindra, India wining more than 2 medals Since Helsinki Olympics, Wining all the medals in Individual events.
The moment of the Olympics for Indians would surely be the Gold Wining performance by Abhinav Bindra in shooting and the national anthem being played since ages on the olympic arena since the 1980 Moscow Olympics.
This olympics has seen the rise of new sporting heroes like Vijender Singh, Jitender and Akhil Kumar in Boxing, Abhinav Bindra in Shooting, Saina Nehwal in Badminton and the Indian Archery team too had a good oympics in both Individual and team events. I hope this triggers a sporting revolution in india, where more people would take a liking for the Olympics Sports , good support from the Govt by providing the athelets world class infrastructure to use and hope so more corporates start sponsoring the olympic sports and give cricket a miss :)
The next target for the Indian atheletes would be the Commanwealth Games in 2010 at Delhi, where india should focus on the fininshing in Top 5 at it's hiome turf, which would give hopes for a bigger haul of medals at 2012 Olympics at London.
Now its the responsibility of the Indian Olympic Association to make use of the success achieved by India at the Olympics, to promote the sports in the country and start planning from now for the next summer olympics at London and after what we have seen about the Infrastructure provide by China for the olympics has been of great class and quality, now its the turn of IOA and the Govt of India to show to world that India can also provide world-class sproting infrastructure.
I believe India can targets medals in Shooting, Boxing, Wrestling, Archery, Hockey, Weighlifting, Badminton and Tennis at the London Olympics.
Hearty Congrats to Abhinav Bindra, Vijender Singh and Sushil Kumar for bringing laurels to our country and made all of us proud.
Cheers for the 3 Musketeers !!!!!!!
