Bindra said mental health directly influences overall <keyword id="19896695" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="well-being" source="keywords">well-being</keyword> of an athlete and sports administrators also share equal responsibility in it. "It's an area where there is work in progress - we all acknowledge that. We are a sporting ecosystem which is developing. It is slowly maturing," he said during a virtual interaction organised by <keyword id="21556305" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Mpower" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Mpower" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Mpower">Mpower</keyword> to launch AMP: A Sports Psychology Division to Elevate Athlete Performance. "This is an aspect that not just from a shooting athlete's point of view, but across the board, which needs to be prioritised. It is something which has a direct influence on the performance of the athlete. "It has a direct influence on the well-being of an athlete. <keyword id="22977441" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="sports-organisations" source="keywords">Sports organisations</keyword> and everybody involved in governance has to also ensure that our athletes perform well, but their well-being is of equal importance," he added. Bindra highlighted the presence of a mental health expert with the Indian contingent in Paris <keyword id="19933819" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="olympics" source="keywords">Olympics</keyword> as a step in the right direction. "We've seen progress made even during the Olympics in Paris. It was the first time there was a mental health expert who was with the team. There (also) was somebody for sleep," he said. "There are things that are happening. But we need to keep working with intensity to make sure that this perpetuates down to the grassroot level," he added. Bindra rejected the notion that athletes today are "softer" than those in the past. "I completely disagree. If that is the notion to be believed, then the softer ones are winning more than the tougher ones because that's what our results and our history tell us," he said. Bindra revealed how a meditation course, while planning to quit shooting, helped him find "love for the process" after winning the Olympic gold in 2008. "When I did win that gold medal at the Olympics, my energy was completely drained in the sense that I was physically, emotionally (and) mentally drained. It also required a period of time to just let go and then to recharge my batteries and that wasn't easy," he said. "I decided to go on a vipassana meditation course and it was interesting because I was wanting to actually leave the sport and move on to the next calling. That was my primary drive, to find my new calling." "I had to meditate for eight nine hours a day in complete silence for 10 days and all I did in that course was to think back to my sport and think back to how I loved the process of what I was doing," he said. Bindra said he was guilty of not realising his full potential since he judged himself on outcomes of tournaments. "For far too long, perhaps, I too was guilty in putting myself worth to wear my name, equating myself worth to where my name would appear on the ranking list of a sports competition and that was very silly," he said. "I became an Olympic champion, (a) world champion, I won many many championships but I failed in achieving my fullest and truest potential and now that I have a chance to look back I would attribute that failure to this lack of balance that I had in my life as an athlete. "I did not humanise my effort enough and I think that was while it helped me achieve goals it didn't help me get to my very best ability," he added.

Abhinav Bindra says training Indian athletes on mental health issues a 'work in progress'

Have you ever travelled by a train? Most likely, your answer would be a resounding yes. It is impossible to escape <keyword id="19909154" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Indian-railways" source="keywords">Indian railways</keyword> while travelling across the country. For most of us, trains are reminiscent of long distances, childhood memories and much more. However, they are slowly morphing into reminders of terrible accidents as well. About 9 people lost their lives this morning, while 60 others were gravely injured when a goods train collided with the <keyword id="22085842" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="Sealdah-Kanchenjunga-express" source="Orion">Sealdah-Kanchenjunga express</keyword> near New Jalpaiguri, <keyword id="19896517" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="west-bengal" source="keywords">West Bengal</keyword> this morning.

Bhaker finished third to secure a bronze medal in the final of the Women's Air Pistol event on Sunday. She became the first Indian woman to win a medal in shooting at the Olympics. Following her win, Mandaviya told ANI, "By winning the first bronze medal in the Paris Olympics, Manu Bhaker has made India proud. In her interaction, she said that she has been a part of '<keyword id="20305504" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Khelo-India" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Khelo India" meta.hostid="153" meta.entityid="Khelo India">Khelo India</keyword>'. I am delighted to tell you that PM Modi started 'Khelo India' and under this initiative, sports infrastructure was set up in the country, sports competition was increased, and projects were floated to identify sports talent at school and college levels. Good coaches were hired to train the talents identified, they were provided good training and under the TOPS scheme, arrangements were made to ensure that they did not face any financial constraints." Mandaviya revealed that around Rs two crores were spent on Manu's training and she was sent to Germany and Switzerland for it. He also expressed confidence that other athletes will also do well in the Olympics. "Around Rs 2 crore was spent on Manu Bhaker's training. She was sent to Germany and Switzerland for training. Financial help was provided which was needed for her to hire a coach who she wanted. We are providing this ecosystem to all athletes so that they give best performance at national and international competitions. I am confident that our athletes will perform well in Paris Olympics too," he added. On the shooting and archery competitions taking place today, Manaviya added, "Shooting and Archery competitions are taking place today. We should encourage our athletes with <keyword id="22586685" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="CheerForBharat" source="Orion">#CheerForBharat</keyword> on social media and encourage them. We expect our athletes to perform well." Bhaker will once again be in action during the 10 m air pistol mixed team competition qualification rounds along with Sarabjot Singh from 12:45 PM onwards. Indian shooters Ramita Jindal and Arjun Babuta, along with the men's archery team, will aim to add to the country's medal count at the ongoing Paris Olympics 2024 on Monday. On Sunday, Ramita made it to the final of the women's 10 m air rifle event after a fifth-place finish during the qualification round, while Arjun came at seventh in the men's event. The top eight players from both the qualification rounds made it to the finals, which are scheduled for today, as per Olympics.com. Also, the men's archery team of Dhiraj Bommadevara, Tarundeep Rai and Pravin Jadhav will be taking on Turkiye or Colombia in the quarterfinals at 6:31 PM. The medal rounds of this category will take place today itself. Bhaker brought India's first medal in the ongoing mega event as she won a bronze medal with a score of 221.7. It was a redemption arc for Manu after her pistol malfunctioned at the Tokyo Olympics. She made history by becoming the first Indian woman in 20 years to reach a shooting final in an individual event of the Olympics since Suma Shirur in 2004. South Korea's Ye Jin clinched the gold medal with an Olympic record of 243.2 points. Her compatriot, Kim Yeji, settled for silver with 241.3 points.
