On Corporate Wheels

In an era when sports participations at the international level are becoming costlier and more complex by the day, it is encouraging to find a corporate brand sponsoring India's first world rankholder wheelchair tennis player, Boniface Prabhu. This corporate move is all the more laudable since wheelchair tennis is by no stretch of imagination, a popular sport in the country. More such corporate sponsorship, as also state backing, are required in the field of sports to encourage more and more worthy youngsters to take up sports as profession and make the country a sporting superpower.
