New Delhi, 28th July. On Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi asked the country’s residents to support Indian athletes competing in the Paris Olympics 2024. This was his second talk following the Lok Sabha elections, and the first since the announcement of the Union Budget 2024-25.

“The Paris Olympics captivated the entire world. The Games give our athletes the opportunity to represent the country and wave the tricolour on a global stage. I urge you to encourage them. “Cheer for Bharat,” declared Prime Minister Narendra Modi at his monthly radio show ‘Mann Ki Baat’.

The Prime Minister also spoke with contestants in the International Mathematics Olympiad.

“In the International Mathematics Olympiad, young participants from over 100 countries take part, and our team has successfully ranked in the top five in the overall tally,” according to Modi.

“The names of these students who have brought glory to the country are – Aditya Venkat Ganesh from Pune, Siddharth Chopra from Pune, Arjun Gupta from Delhi, Kanav Talwar from Greater Noida, Rushil Mathur from Mumbai and Anando Bhaduri from Guwahati,” stated the politician.

PM Modi mentioned the Olympic Games-bound athletes in the previous session of his radio broadcast, emphasizing their hard effort to shine on such a large stage. He stated that the athletes prepared with ‘heart and soul’ for the huge event, competing in approximately 900 international contests collectively.

“Our athletes’ performance in Tokyo captured the hearts of every Indian. Since the Tokyo Olympics, our athletes have been practicing with all their heart and soul. PM Modi stated that they had participated in around 900 international events.

“The men’s and women’s table tennis teams have qualified. Our female shooters also participate in the Indian shotgun team. This time, our athletes will compete in categories in wrestling and equestrian events in which they have never participated before,” he added
