OLYMPIC TORCH:(FROM AN INDIAN ANGLE)
The torch bearer from India at London Olympic defies any
logic why a 70 years old Hindi film star be chosen ahead of many sports
personalities of India. Anju George or
P.T.Usha or Viswanath Anand or any other sport person who brought laurels for
our country would have been a better option. A young girl of sixteen from
Pakistan and a twenty two years old doctor from Sri Lanka are representing as Olympic torch bearer from their country. A young tribal girl
with sports background would have been an ideal choice to carry the torch at
London on behalf of Indian. Probably the Olympic Authority at London/India is
running short of ideas about Indian sports. Many people fail to understand why
people like Karan Johar, MMSingh, Amitab Bachan and Kalmadi are invited for a
premier sports event like Olympics? We have sent 65 athletes plus a huge
contingent of officials and supporting staffs, let us wish them the best of luck .
