Unbelievable. There is not one sportsperson on the panel. Not one coach. What do these guys know about sports in India. I am sorry, but how many world class stadiums do we have, how many football fields. It’s very easy to sit here in your AC rooms and say all these when neither do you know about sports and sports infrastructure nor do you dare to research and put out proper analysis. This is like a high school debate, everyone shouting over one another. No concrete facts and data trends presented. This is the state of our mainstream media. Shameful

It's funny these people discuss sports other than circket once in 4 years and expect them to win medals !! sic !!

The most useless bunch of people they found in their studio who never played a single sport in their entire life to do a group discussion on "Why India still doesn't do well in Olympics and How to raise the standards in Sports ". Initially Vikrant and Preeti made their individual points without interruption but after that it turned into a fish market debate where everyone was cutting off the other person making it's point. The only person who made really good points was the lady in green on the extreme left sitting next to Vikrant but she was constantly getting interrupted/ heckled. That lady in pink on extreme right was soo freaking annoying as she was cutting off everyone and made the most idiotic/ silly arguments.

Hong kong won 2 medals feeling very shameful and emotional about my motherland😢

You journalists are equally responsible because you only glorify Cricket players and not other sports. Stop this Cricket IPL madness and start Athletics IPL .

[BabaSal-sy]

We have become joker's & chokers in the world 🌎

[storm_yu]

Modi's sports ministry is sleeping. Sports federations are politicised and incompetent. Athletes have lack of commitment. Perfect recipe for bringing shame to a great nation like India.

[MARKCRASTO]

In the US, university and high-schoosl have world class tracks, and sports fields. In India we have jack sht.
So many US medal winners are harvard graduates, doctors, dentists, engineers..
How many Indian's can do that?? We don't have the balls or will, to build world class athletes. Stop blaming "athletes" as if they are a separate caste from all of you. Athletes come from this society, from us, and therefore 'we the people' are at fault.

[_amalik]

These folks are so full of themselves. As if the player who finishes fourth doesn't himself / herself feel bad for missing out on medal

[nitlover]

Ask these guys when is next badminton tournament no one will answer. They will cricket schedule for entire year 😂

[vgk]

China starts training their athletes from the age 3. How do we encourage this in India?

[biswadeeppanda]

First get the country to have right nutrition. Malnutrition across the country.

[abhijitdas]

🤔I don't know but I definitely believe that Indian player have a certain mental barrier specifically in the name of "Olympics"🙁

[singhpratik]

Nothing can change in this country.... Nothing!!!!

[ashay]

Every country has a team sports non olympic game that they venerate... American football in america, soccer in UK and Cricket India. How come these countries can get so many medals despite having team sports hogging the limelight? Stop blaming cricket.

[adityabanerjee]

India considers Yuzvendra Chahal fielding in thirdman far superior to Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps

[akshayzanje]

Can you cover other sports for complete 4 year cycle before putting such debates?? You don't even care about other sports apart from cricket

[dj]

Somehow I hate Gaurav Sawant's viewpoint everytime Democratic Newsroom is aired. Always acting as a Govt. Spokesperson and taking other side. Irritating, pls dont keep him onboard.

[Justtlove]

When you will not take action against molesters then this would happen.

The Indian government is pending INR 800 Crore on Khelo India. These idiots don't even know this much.
