Rio olympics is being started on 5th August and no motivational campaigning started by government yet.
Yet have to prove all olympic players that they are also a sportsperson and playing for india only while Vijender Singh who is playing professional boxing all media,political,bollywood and industrialists are showing interst in sport where money can be made..What a shame for India..Spirti for country is lost somewhere...
