Once you are fit you look good. So you don't have to achieve a particular size. You just need to have a bench mark so that you keep trying.
-Bipasha Basu
We are focusing on the kids for Marks for Sports in schools but it is parents who really need to be involved in sports and fitness. I think The Fittest City Contest will get parents involved as well.
-Baichung Bhuttia
I suggested the Sports Minister that we should make Yoga mandatory in govt schools. You don’t need a big ground for it. So wherever there is a dearth of space Yoga can be incorporated.
-Dia Mirza
Fitness means one of the top three most important things in my life. The other two being food and my parents.

Riyansh Bhatia

About Riyansh

Riyansh started skating on simple adjustable skates at the age of 3. Over a period of 6 months he gained keen interest and moved on directly to Inline Skating. His first competition was at the age of 4 where he won his first golds in Mumbai District Skating Championship. Since then he was around 17 golds and few trophies. Riyansh also plays chess and table tennis. He also plays keyboard and has played the instrument at few concerts.
Why I want Marks for Sports..

Marks for Sports will enable us kids to balance out the marks we lose in academics due to our time we spend in sports. We currently get just 25 marks which I believe is just too little for our talent as well as the hardwork we put. Moreover Marks for Sports will enable us to compete with other academically bright kids and then we should be put on the same platform as them. There needs to be a common instrument that measures talents in all fields like arts, academics, sports, music, etc. With Skating and other sports, I have not only become fit but also bold.
