Ismaili journalist comments on India’s chances of winning medals at the Olympics

Ismaili journalist comments on India's chances of winning medals at the OlympicsSultan Jessa from Montreal wrote: ‘I am a Tanzania-born retired Canadian journalist, whose ancestry is from Gujarat. My absolute loyalty is to Canada. So, naturally I will be cheering for Canada all the way. I have always been fascinated by India and I will be cheering for the Indian contingent as well. Unfortunately, India, despite its massive population, has not performed well at the Olympics.

‘India’s image has changed by winning three medals at the last Olympics. But India has a very long way to go. I am hoping and praying the Indian contingent will do better this time around. I expect India to win more medals in London than at Beijing; if it does not, it will be a tremendous disappointment. Millions in India and NRIs around the world are depending on India to do its best.’
