A Promoter of Physical Education and Sports- Maj. Gen. S.N. Mukherjee. A Case Study

      Аннотация: Transforming an organization so completely, against heavy odds, in such a short time, by a person totally from different field, in an alien environment, sans a sense of discipline, in absence of a stringent legal manual to back up prudence, is surely super human in today’s context. Surely, “The Man”, has some rare mix of qualities of head and heart, unavailable in the annals of academic syllabus of any educational system, that needs to be analyzed, researched and emulated by our potential teachers, academicians and leaders to make a difference to the countries future. Envisioning Physical Education progress Maj. Gen. Shibnath Mukherjee (Retd) was one of the foremost visionary leaders this country has thrown up, post independence. He lifted physical education standard out of the morass of a defeatist mindset. Maj. Gen. S.N. Mukherjee (Retd) stood for youth, vigor, hope, dynamism, modernity and above all, humanity. He achieved fame not only in Army field but also in Physical Education field in a very short span of time. The prettiest part of his charming personality is his innocent smile. But despite his innocent looks, he has iron in his soul.
