India won gold at the Olympics…. What an achievement… We all should be so proud of this… The first ever individual gold… The first ever after 1980… Look at Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri lanka… none have won one… Makes us feel even better…
A nation of Billion people… one of the largest countries by size… one of the fastest growing economies of the world… And we have won one gold…
Just checked the latest medal rankings…
Georgia –the war torn country has 3 medals including 2 gold
North Korea – the most sanctioned country in the world has 7 medals
Azerbaijan – don’t even know where it is on the map has 4 medals
Mongolia- the last known person from there was Genghis Khan has 3 medals
And we have one gold… China gained independence around the same time as us…They are hosting the Olympics…. I don’t know how many independence days will have to pass before India hosts one…
One gold is a start …. But we still have a long way to go…
