Where do we go by caste, see two incidents…
First: Grounds of Tokyo Olympics, day Wednesday, date 4 August… women’s hockey team fought hard. Inch-by-inch of the field, hockey-hockey and ball-by-ball. Still lost the semi-final against Argentina. What was it, some people reached their own forward player Vandana Kataria’s house and started abusing her caste, saying that we lost because of Dalit players. The city was Haridwar.
Second: Grounds of Tokyo Olympics, day Sunday, date 1 August… Shuttler PV Sindhu was measuring every drop of sweat. Eventually defeated Chinese player Xiao Bing and won the bronze medal. But people kept searching her caste on Google. Searched so much that pv sindhu caste remained in top trend throughout the day. The searchers were from all over the country, but Uttarakhand, Andhra, Telangana and Himachal topped in the search.
After all, we worry more about the caste of the players than the game. So we went through the entire account of our 128 players who went to Tokyo, but we are not telling the caste of the players, but their social participation. That is, which family do they belong to, which state they belong to, how much they earn and account, from which category they come. Let’s go one by one…
1. Category Analysis: Most general category players, but Jats from Punjab-Haryana, who are fighting to be in OBC
Of the 52 players from Haryana, Punjab and Chandigarh, more than 90% come from Jat families, who currently belong to the general category, but are fighting for their inclusion in the Backward Classes. The matter has reached the court. This analysis is of 106 players.
2. Analysis on economic condition: Middle class players are the highest, but after getting a job from sports quota, the condition of the family improved
The middle class that is visible in this too, more than 50% are those who have improved the condition of their families after getting jobs from sports quota. Otherwise, these players, who win medals for the country, are fighting wrestling everyday in real life.
In Tokyo Olympics, there are boys and girls from such families, whose mothers and sisters sweep other’s houses, know about 10 players-
1.Haryana athlete Sandeep Kumar’s father herds goats in the village and works as a daily wage laborer in the fields of others.
2.Jharkhand’s hockey player Salima Tete’s father and sisters work as laborers and run the house. There was no TV in his house to watch the Olympics, so now the TV is on at the behest of the CM. This is the home of our hockey player Salima Tete.
3.Haryana hockey player Neha Goyal’s mother has brought up three daughters by sweeping people’s homes. They currently have a 50 yard house in the village.
4.Rajasthan’s athlete Bhavna Jat definitely does a job in the Railways, but when she went to the Olympics, she had to stay on a leave-without-pay job. His father and brother remain ill. The coach has helped for her treatment, then she played the Olympics.
5.Haryana’s hockey player Nisha Warsi’s father was a tailor, used to sew clothes. He used to run the house with the money he used to get clothes sewn, and with that money, he used to collect everything for the girl to play hockey.
6.Haryana’s shooting player Sanjeev Rajput’s father used to sell fast food earlier. Sanjeev’s father has now stopped setting up street vendors. But as long as Sanjeev was training, his father used to give him money from his street vendors job.
7.Hockey captain Rani Rampal’s father used to drive a horse cart earlier. Rani Rampal’s father has now stopped driving horse carts. But when Rani Rampal did not become a big name, this is what her father used to do.
8.Haryana wrestling player Deepak Poonia’s father delivers milk to people’s homes. Deepak Punia’s family is now watching their child playing in the Olympics.
9.The father of Meerabai Chanu of Manipur, who won the medal, used to plow in the fields of others. Now the situation is improving. Many people of Chanu’s family go to other fields and work as laborers.
10.The family of medal winner Ravi Dahiya of Haryana does farming and now their condition has started improving. Now people are paying respect to Ravi Dahiya’s family. Otherwise, this small farmer’s family used to be troubled in their livelihood.
3. Analysis on social condition: 48% players come from farmer families
Only a few names like Angad Bajwa are seen from big business. And finally, we also talk about which are the states, which are able to prepare players for the Olympics. You will see the list on the screen.
4. State wise Analysis: Big states like Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat have only 2-2 players
50 players out of 128 are from Punjab Haryana only. There is not a single player from Bihar, Chhattisgarh and Goa.
This is a list of 127 players. Ariban Lahiri is a player who lives in Florida, USA. Some of these players are claimed by two states each. Because they were born in another state and trained in another state. Like Vivek Sagar was born in Raghunathpur in Bihar but now lives in Itarsi, Madhya Pradesh.
