Dear SPORTS LOVERS,
Our sports Women,especially our Women Weight Lifters,have helped India secure a most enviable Third Place in the Medals tally.India by virtue of Thirty- Two Gold Medals is Literally "a Nose" ahead of their Canadian rivals who have Thiry-One Gold Medals.
But the alleged drug Offence committed by two of our Maleweightlifters ,Krishnan Madaswamy and Sateesh Rai in Sixty-three and sevent-seven Kilo Catagories respectively,will deprive India of the Two Gold Medals earned by them.This is not
only a "Royal Nose-cut" to India's Sports reputation but will also push India to the Fourth spot behind Canada.One should never underestimate the ability of menfolk to spoil the good work done by Womenfolk !!
How I wish the Charming Neelam Laxmi had won the three Gold Medals in her 69 kilo Catagory of Women's Weightlifting
.This would have secured India's Position inspite of her Male collegues' Perfidy !!
Your's Sincerely,
Rushmi Dave
