Independence is something which is vital to our living being and goes unnoticed while we are engrossed in our daily chores.
The freedom of speech and expression, right to equality, right against exploitation, right to freedom of conscience and free profession, right to propagation of religion and much more, which we enjoy must be cherished as not everyone in this world is lucky to enjoy them.
It’s about time to take notice of the same and dream big in every sphere of life including the most passionate, thrilling, lovable and popular sport – FOOTBALL.
Indian football is mired in a complex web of problems and while the recovery process is on, the time to undo the mistakes of the past are taking far too long for anyone’s liking.
“Freedom is taken, not given,” were the famous words uttered by Subhash Chandra Bose and it certainly holds relevance to the present day scenario.
While there is no single big step which needs to be taken to improve the situation, action must be initiated on simultaneous fronts.
Inspiration must be taken from the freedom fighters as they embarked on the “impossible” dream to achieve Independence back then and dream that one day the Indian tri-colour would be amongst the elite 32 nations at the Football World Cup.
Yes, India has just been ousted from the 2014 World Cup Qualifier but we can always plan for the future by taking the right steps in the present.
