PT Usha humiliated? Disrespect is India’s style statement?

Posted by Anish

Just now I read the news article from IBN. [http://ibnlive.in.com/news/pt-usha-humiliated-in-bhopal-breaks-down/102770-5.html]. Felt like we should shout at those guys. It was not the Indian culture to disrespect people like her. She is one of the most famous Indian women, who brought fame and glory to India. When I was child, I heard a story about her glory after the Olympics. One of her fan wanted to mail (snail mail ;) ) and since he didn’t know the address of her, that guy simply posted the mail with the address as “P T Usha, India” and it came directly to her house at Payyolly.

She even started an athletics school in her town, training hundreds of brilliant children into world class athletes. Such people are of less in number who is truly contributing to the nation where it’s a herculean task to get 10 gold medals in any Olympics even though we are 1.2 billion in number.

India was never competent to host any sort of International games till now. Even though we get a chance, we will never try to show off with that opportunity. Take the case of commonwealth games itself. Yesterday one of the major news was that India is 3 months behind the schedule and God only knows about the real condition of the preperations is.

One small hole can sink a ship. Similarly one bad remark on us will stay for many years. And that can affect the opportunity of India to host any other international event.
