The 32nd Summer Tokyo Olympics officially kicked off on Friday. The Tokyo Olympics have been officially launched amid a special event in the Japanese capital, Tokyo. More than 11, players from countries marched in the opening ceremony. Various programs reflecting Japan's culture, traditions, customs, economy and prosperity were presented in the program.

Hashimoto Seko, chairman of the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee, said he was pleased to be able to host the Olympics in a grand and dignified manner, which has come close to being postponed in Olympic history.

With the inauguration, the hopes, beliefs and dreams of thousands will come true. We are all celebrating the inauguration in a different situation than we imagined. However, we are all happy ', he said,' We all have to work together to make this happiness even more special.

Because it is the integrated power of sports. It is also a message of unity. It will give us all hope for the journey ahead. Along with them, judo player Sonia Bhatt and shooting player Kalpana Pariyar participated in the march past. Athletics player Saraswati Chaudhary will leave for Japan only on Sunday. She is busy preparing in Nepal.

Sunil Kumar Shrestha, vice-chairman of the Olympic Committee and president of the Nepal Fencing Association, will participate in the Tokyo Olympics as the shooting manager. Pitamber has been given the responsibility of managing the athletics. Postponed by a year because of the Covid pandemic, the 32nd Olympic Games starts on Friday without spectators as the number of infections continues to rise in the Japanese capital.

Compared to the number of athletes, the number of Nepali officials has always been much higher in the Olympics. Singh and Shah will compete in women's and men's m freestyle events. Pariyar will vie in the women's 10m air rifle while Bhatta will battle in women's 48kg weight category in judo.

Saraswati will represent Nepal in the women's m race. Shrestha, who is also a Member of Parliament, may not have been wrong in his proclamation of the absence of jatra as the infighting between Nepal Olympics Committee, National Sports Council and other individual sports bodies to send officials to the Tokyo Games was not public. Prakash Sumsher Rana and Tulasa Thapa are going as team managers for judo which has a single competitor. But neither Rana nor Thapa are associated with the sport.

Similarly, Nepal Fencing Association president Sunil Kumar Shrestha is in Tokyo as the manager of the one-member shooting team and while Nepal Boxing Association president Ram Awale is the manager of the swimming team. Nepal Olympic Committee deputy general secretary Pitambar Timalsina has flown from the United States, where he has been living for more than a year, in the capacity of the athletics manager.

For them mega events like the Olympics and Asian Games are opportunities for an all-expenses-paid tour. Officials, on the other hand, disregard athletes who have worked for years to participate in the Olympic Games. Gopi Chandra Parki, who won the m gold in the 13th South Asian Games held in December , was among the few Nepali athletes to ever win a middle distance gold in an international competition.
