  • Games and Sports : a Gateway of Women's Empowerment in India
    Games And Sports : A Gateway Of Women’s Empowerment In India Dr. Krishnendu Pradhan ABSTRACT “Sport has huge potential to empower women and girls” - Remarks by Lakshmi Puri; UN Assistant Secretary-General and UN Women Deputy Executive Director. The purpose of this paper attempts to shed light the status of women’s empowerment in India through games and sports and highlights the issues and challenges of women empowerment in the field of physical education and sports. Sport is an integral part of the culture of almost every nation. However, its use to promote gender equity and empower girls and women is often overlooked because sport is not universally perceived as a suitable or desirable pursuit for girls and women. Today the empowerment of women in games and sports has become one of the most important concerns of 21st century. But practically women empowerment in games and sports is still an illusion of reality. It is observe in our day to day life how women become victimized by various social evils. Women empowerment is the vital instrument to expand women’s ability to have resources and to make strategic life choices. Empowerment of women in games and sports is essentially the process of upliftment of economic, social and political status of women, the traditionally underprivileged ones, in the society. Today sports and physical activity as a strategy for the empowerment of girls and women has been gaining recognition worldwide. Women could be empowered through education, sports and physical activities and by giving them equal opportunities in different walks of life. Research on sport, gender, and development indicates that sport can benefit girls and women by: Enhancing health and well-being, fostering self-esteem and empowerment, facilitating social inclusion and integration, challenging gender norms and providing opportunities for leadership and achievement.

The three widely used types of blood doping are: Blood transfusion Injection of erythroprotein Injection of synthetic oxygen carriers. Doping is defined by the IOC as the use of any method or substance that might harm the athlete, in a quest to gain an unfair advantage over his or her fellow competitors. The drugs used in doping often have detrimental effects to one’s health both mental and physical. In the short run these drugs improve one’s performance, but in the long run they can kill. Keywords: Prohibited, Steroids, forbidden drugs, Detrimental effects Introduction Historically speaking, the origins of doping in sports go back to the very creation of sports itself. From ancient usage of substances in chariot racing to more recent controversies in baseball and cycling, popular views among athletes have varied widely from country to country over the years.

  • India in Asian Games-2014
    India in Asian Games-2014 The 2014 Asian Games was held in Incheon, South Korea from September 19 – October 4, 2014. China topped the medals table for the ninth time followed by South Korea and Japan. China won 151 gold medals ahead of the 79 won by host South Korea. Most Valuable Player award was won by Japanese swimmer Kosuke Hagino, who won seven medals including four individual gold medals. India finished eighth with 11 gold, 10 silver and 36 bronze. India’s performance in Incheon went slightly down from 14 gold medals to 11 compared to Guangzhou 2010. Four of those gold medals came in athletics (two) and kabaddi (two) while archery, boxing, hockey, shooting, squash, tennis and wrestling accounted for the rest. In shooting Jitu Rai won the first gold for India by beating the strong contenders like Wang Zhiwei of China and South Korean two-time Olympic champion and reigning world champion Jongoh to win the gold. Yogeshwar Dutt accomplished it in style by ending India's 28-year-old gold medal drought in the wrestling. The London Olympic Games bronze-medallist fought with verve and determination to win the men's freestyle 65kg gold. In tennis Sania and Saketh Myneni defeated Chinese Taipei’s pair to win the country a mixed doubles gold. She also bagged a bronze in the women’s doubles partnering Prarthana.
