God Bless Vijender
The evening the Indian contingent was leaving for Beijing, he had said over the phone to me : poori koshish karoonga ki khaali haath na aaun. :boxing
And he kept his word.
Koyal was reciting the poem by Suryakant Tripathi Nirala as the bout was on :
Himmat Karnewaalon ki kabhi haar nahi hoti (Thanks Neels for posting such a beautiful poem under the thread Hindi- kavita. Koyal knows it by-heart now.)
Just as he was announced the winner, Koyal was reciting....
....Mutthi uski khaali har baar nahi hoti :rock
I was glad to meet Vijender just a month ahead of the Olympics and I took his autograph and he had shyly obliged saying - mujhe iski aadat nahi hai. And I had remarked - Nahi hai to aadat daal lo
I am so happy
Hey great words he kept his word even he is great guy hope he will win Gold medal.

Bharti ji we can feel the happiness in your words. Jab humein itni khushi ho rahi hai to unko aur unke parivar walon ko kitni khushi ho rahi hogi ....jinhone pata nahi kaise kaise itne paison ka prabandh kiya hoga ...
Iss desh ke gamman mein bera na kitne heere honge ... je sarkar sahi disha mein kadam thake uneh tarashe to ... haryane ke association ke adhyaksh pad tahi kukar chautala er jindal kuttyan ki dhal ladein they ... dekhte hein kya unmein se koe ... Bhiwani wali acadmy ko grant denge aur koe nae kholenge ... ya phir sushil jaise pata nahi kitne pehlwan rasta bhatak rahe hein iss area mein ... unko koe gaddon wala training academy de paenge ....
Oon bhi te ghane ee bharti karte rahe sein ... je koe chora national khele hai to usne naukri de deni chahiye sarkar ne taki wo apne khel pe concentrate kar pave.
I agree with Jitender that government should encourage sportsmen. These players should be given jobs and all big departments should have their team so that these players can get financial help in policing their skills.
Conratulations to all on the grand success of Haryanvi Boxer and Delhi's wrestler.

Re Bhai Jitender, Katti mere bhee man me yahe baat thi.
Just look at Wrestler Sushil Kumar, Satpal trained him, but olympic me coach hai koyee Mr. Sodhee, why Indian Govt can not send Satpal himself, instead of some body not known in Wrestling like Mr Sodhee.
In Boxing Jagbir Singh coached so many boys in Bhiwani, Let us see how this medal changes his life. Let us see what our polititians do now. Hope CM and MP hooda are listning.

Jitu, shi kaha bhai. Telent ki kami nahi hai iss desh main. A lot of Abhinavs, susheels, Vijenders are there. Govt should take action from the beginning. Giving cash and other awards after winning the medal is good thing but it will not solve the problem. We have to go on the line of China. Small kids have already been enrolled there for Olympic up to 2020. Target have already been fixed for them. Life has been assured for each sportsman. Sania / Akhil / Jitender and others are also equal to these, who have won the medals. Parents for each sportsman can not provide the facility as Abhinav gets from his parents. Agar Abhinav bhee sarkar ke bharose hota to syad hi medal mil pata. I wish that India will be in medal tally of Olympic as under
2012- in first twenty
2016 -in first fifteen
2020 - in first ten

Bhai Jitu ... ekdum sahi baat kahi aapne.
Let's not forget Akhil Kumar, Jitender Kumar (they were good too) and many more who couldn't even go to Olympics. They all are capable because they all are hard-working and so working hard. It's a great feeling to see Vijender and Sushil in medal's list... this will further motivate young lads in Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan and Delhi, in particular.
Hum SHER hai SHER ... aur aagey badenge .... aur badh ke hi dikhaayenge... jisme damm ho to rok ke dekh lo...jitna rokoge utha aur aage badenge... hum nahi rukenge...
Jai Hind and Jai JAT!!

Wow! This is such historic news for India! 3 medals in one olympics after simply sooooo LONG!...
Also, Sushil is really to be commended especially after being not even mentioned much in the dailies... I guess because he had lost his opening bout itself in these Beijing Olympics and everyone had written him off from the medals hope since then!... (completely removed the spot light and moved on, to put it mildly!)
To then emerge again like some phoenix from the shadows suddenly make this sort of a comeback with no expectations at all is really even more amazing! (I can only imagine what sort of pressure would be on Vijender now to make it a silver.... and better still a GOLD!)...
But still, everything said and done; it's historic no doubt! Congratulations everyone! This is a moment to cherish no doubt!
Govt's support was negligible to our sportsmen.
They have shown their calibre which they have built on their own & by their coaches ofcourse.
Govt can just use these victories for vote bank politics.
Anyway.....leave the current politics behind...
as of now......only & only CHEEEERING MOMENTS.....!!!!!

Well its definitely historic moment for India as they have got their record number of medals in a single olympics but its really depressing to see even countries like Zimbabwe ahead of us in medal tally. Their government isn't helping their athletes at all yet they are ahead of us... What is wrong?????

Thunderbolt BOLT breaks legendary Johnson's 200m record...!!
Source: http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5g186TLoElTJKlOFxrfXnOnT7PY7A
Stunning Bolt sets 200m Olympic world record
Jamaica's Usain Bolt broke the 200-meter world record to complete the first Olympic golden sprint double in 24 years, surging ahead from the start to win Wednesday's final in 19.30 seconds.
Just four days after shattering his own world 100m record and on the eve of his 22nd birthday, Bolt pulled away around the curve and stretched his victory margin, with Churandy Martina of Dutch Antilles runner-up in 19.82. Bolt, who had not before been pressed to run to the finish line at these Games, raced past the former world record of 19.32 set by American legend Michael Johnson at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
Not since Carl Lewis in 1984 had any man claimed 100m and 200m gold in the same Olympics, but this lightning Bolt struck twice in the same place to the delight of 91,000 roaring fans at the Bird's Nest. As Bolt danced around the track on a victory lap, the stadium loudspeakers played "Happy Birthday" to the Jamaican some 90 minutes early.
Bolt became the ninth man to achieve the 100-200 Olympic double after winning the 100 final on Saturday in an astounding 9.69 seconds, breaking his former world mark of 9.72 from May in New York.
After crossing the finish line and raising his arms in celebration, Bolt grabbed a Jamaican flag and draped it around his neck. He took off his golden shoes and began an impromptu celebration dance.

My answer is MICHAEL Phelps!!! Heh! Heh! Heh!
[Dude, you must be like totally watching some other 'Olympic-n-world's-greatest-most-celebrated-sportsperson-in-the-news-at-the-moment-and-in-the-times-to-come' channel.......
Oh, and so now there is a question about Phelps gold medals??? (Huh, I must have missed that part of the news flash right when they are splashing Phelps mug shot in every possible magazine, channel, news ad print media that one can think of at this very moment and even as we speak... ah well
, (you know how it can be; someone like poor me can really get lost getting totally absorbed into such momentous achievement just like every true sports-fan around the world is celeberating,... to catch the poor naysayers that are also bound to come out of the woodwork!)...as to the showmanship and great attitude part... I suggest you watch Bolt's 100mts sprint race all over again in some u-tube rerun and try and not miss the fact this time that he was already pumping his fists and his chest even much before he passed the finish line... really spoke volumes of 'his' sportsmanship and attitude; ... (the guy was more busy rubbing his undoubtedly amazing flashing streak on the faces of the rest of his not any less illustrious compatriots, than maybe having tried and bettered the record even some more by crucial fraction of seconds. That was really smart thinking for a sportsman!
)... But then also, doesn't everyone love such a modest n' humble winner!?! He undoubtedly already shows his greatness...
...with that I rest my case!!!
ps. and oh, as to already trying to so loosely compare Bolt with the great Carl Lewis himself,.... ahhhhh maaan, now where do I start on this?... would need another big educational post here........

Phelps is great, no denying that but sprints are the showcase events in Olympics and thats where Bolt demolished the field.... He went where no one thought human beings can go.. Swimming world records change after every race but beating Michael Johnson's record after 12 yrs was something special.... Bolt has just done what Lewis did in 84, only in more spectacular fashion.. Maybe He slowed down in 100 meters to make sure the margin of victory is not embarrasingly large
.. Have you ever and i mean ever seen a sprinter having time to watch himself on the giant screen or spread his arms out and thump his chest in 100 meters dash... Those images are unforgettable.. All of Phelps world records will be re-written in the next world champs, maybe by phelps himself but bolt's records can't be touched by anyone except the man himself.. Watching Phelps was like watching a machine in action, Watching Bolt was an altogether different sensation.... You were a swimmer so maybe you admire phelps more but walk out that door and listen to other people, everyone is talking about the lightening bolt.......- Status
