Aishwary Pratap Singh Tomar: Indian sports underwent a renaissance in 1996 in Atlanta when Leander Paes won a bronze medal in men's singles tennis, ending a 44-year-old drought for the country's second individual medal at the Olympics.

As the clock ticks down for the upcoming Olympic Games in Paris, the question is whether India will undergo another transformation in the French capital.

That medal bagged by Leander Paes kind of triggered the growth points in Indian sport and since then the country has claimed at least one medal from the subsequent editions of the Olympic Games with at least one medal and 12 years after Atlanta, Abhinav Bindra added gold to glory by bagging India's first individual gold medal in shooting.
