#2 India has missed only 4 Olympics since its inception
India wasn’t represented in the First Olympics held in 1896 in Athens but were represented by Norman Pritchard in 1900 who brought home two Silvers. However, after 1900, India was seen in Olympics two decades later in 1920.
India didn’t feature in the Olympics of 1904, 1908 and 1912 and was sent to the 1920 edition due to efforts by Sir Dorab Tata and the Governor of Bombay George Lloyd. Since 1920, India has featured in all of the editions of Olympics.
