We sent a delegation of 117 sportsmen to the Rio Olympics . They returned with 2 medals . There was widespread media coverage . There was no shortage of sponsors . Why even Sachin was on call !
Compare that with the Rio Paralympics . We sent a delegation of 19 . That’s right – nineteen . They’ve already bagged 4 medals ! No media coverage . No sponsors . And god knows where Sachin is !
No this isn’t about able versus disabled . But it’s still worth relating . It’s not too late . Come on Maruti Suzuki – give them each a car because BMW won’t ! And what about those Khel Ratna Awards ! And cash prizes ! Wake up India . Add your voice, so that those who ought to , wake up .
