Modi in his address to the cheering crowd said that instead of professionalism, there was nepotism and corruption in sports. We have cleaned up the system and pumped in new confidence among the youth. Your victory in sports will pave the way for the country’s success in other fields. The soft power of sports will significantly improve our country’s image in the world.
