It gives me pleasure to know that Sir Syed School of Sports, Delhi in collaboration with Press Club of India is organizing a symposium "Indian Hockey - in Search of an Identity" in the second week of April.

Next to cricket, hockey is the most popular game of our Country. It is the game in which India had earned fame in the World due to Hockey wizard, Dhyan Chand. Lately this distinction had been lost due to several reasons. Concerted efforts are needed by the Government and sports lovers for reviving the past glory in this game.

I hope useful deliberations would be held in the symposium to formulate the roadmap for reviving the prestige in Hockey.
I send my best wishes.
