During this, former Olympic medalist Gurbaksh Singh said, "Only when the Olympics come, we wake up, the whole country wakes up. This attitude should change. We have got a tough pool. The first goal should be to reach the semi-finals. We have to enter the field with only the thought of winning."

 

Gymnast Dipa Karmakar also gave her opinion.

 

Gymnast Dipa Karmakar, who missed the bronze medal by a narrow margin in the Rio Olympics 2016, also inspired the players. She said, "You should have the will to achieve everything. After finishing fourth, I asked coach Bishweshwar Nandi sir how I faced the crores of Indians who believed in me. He had so many expectations from me. I wanted to go directly to Agartala but he said that the whole country awaits you."

 

She said, "And the way I was welcomed after I came, I was stunned. I remember how many inspiring words Prime Minister Narendra Modi said and he knew every minute detail of my performance."

 

What did Rahul Banerjee say?

 

Former Olympian archer Rahul Banerjee said a player should always learn from failures. He said, "If you win the first tournament, you celebrate and if you lose the second, you are declared a failure."
