India can proudly say that it has injected 1.5 billion vaccine doses in its country and has produced millions of vaccines and exported them to countries around the world. India’s next generation is filled with a billion hopes and dreams fueled by creative energy and power.
I truly believe that India is on the verge of becoming something special with the Olympic Movement. India is scaling new heights in every field including the Olympic Games. Nearly half of India’s population, ie 600 million people, is under the age of 25, making it one of the most important and exciting places to advance the Olympic Movement.
