WHY INDIA THE SECOND LARGEST POPULATED COUNRY UNABLE TO GET MEDALS IN OLYMPIC ?

Sports is not really respected in India, parents only make their kids study study study more.
Some culturally inclined parents do encourage kids to pursue fine arts,classical dance, music etc, but sports are not taken that seriously, there is lack of funding at govt level, public spending etc for sports.
Also, cricket is the only sport that is probably famous in the country, lots of youngsters aspiring to be cricketers... Tennis is now gaining a bit of ground..
But other sportsmen/women (non-cricket) may find it very difficult to make ends meet/fund their training/find sponsors/access the right resources, etc.
This explains the very poor performance at Olympics!!
