Forget Kohli for a minute here.

 

Taken on its own merit, isn't this a laudable achievement for one University to send 10 Olympians?

Must be some long distance diploma or even better some sponsored skill certificate program, latching on to the fame of these athletes. LPU has a dubious reputation, may or may not be deserved but it doesn't enjoy credibility, like IIPM.

:-(

I was imagining a university with a sports campus - with coaches and facilities - where these athletes trained.

Does lpu teach athletics? If not what is Kohli smoking? 

Even if they were not teaching athletics, they could take credit if they provided free training facilities, coaching etc along with some formal education to get the athletes ready for life after sports (the US NCAA model).

In school we have one PT/PE class per week and mostly even that is taken by some Maths or Language teacher to complete the syllabus for some BS weekly test. Pan-India phenomenon. Nothing too different in college, sports (except maybe cricket) is an alien concept for most Indians right from a young age. 

 

Respect to our Olympians and all sportspersons (not many make it to the highest level but can't downplay their efforts and risks taken) for following their passion in this country.

LPU is only good for shameless self-promotion. Must have paid Loli a lot for that, remember this guy getting Bollywood stars and random celebs to endorse his fraud initiative, IIPM...which destroyed lives of many youngsters?

We don't have anything like NCAA in India, going to college means end of sports journey in almost all cases.

Most of them do it to get a govt job in sports quota that's why we don't win medals. There are hardly any ambitions.

Lol look at his face if someone thought this crook would give them a degree that will setup their career I feel bad for them. But yeah going through a course paying money and getting a worthless degree must have been so bad.

Padhoge Likhoge Banoge Nawab

Kheloge Kudoge Banoge Kharab 

 

My grandpa used to say this proverb, but in reverse!

Kheloge Kudoge to banoge nawab 

Padhoge likhoge to banoge kharab 

 

In his time, our time and in the future, this will be very true.
