Elated by the performance of Indian players in the Tokyo Olympics, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said new India’s towering self-confidence was getting reflected in each game as the conviction and confidence of the country’s players are at their peak.

“This time, the highest number of Indian players have qualified for the Olympics. We must not forget the fact that we have achieved it while fighting the worst pandemic of the last 100 years. There are sports in which our players have qualified for the very first time,” Modi said in a virtual address.

He was taking part in a Gujarat government’s event of distributing free ration to the poor. The event, held in Dahod, was part of the nine-day long celebration of Chief Minister Vijay Rupani’s five years in office.

Modi in his speech said, “Our players haven’t just qualified, they are giving their best performance too. New India’s towering self-confidence is reflecting in each game. Our Olympics players and teams are giving a tough fight to their competitors having better rankings. The conviction and confidence of Indian players are at their peak.” He said the Indian players are more confident because of the transparency in the system and the identification of the right talent. “This self-confidence comes naturally when the right talent is identified and promoted when the system gets changed and transparency is brought in. This new self-confidence is now becoming the identity of new India and reaching every nook and corner of the country,” the PM said.
