Controversy erupted after Times of India published an interview with Neeraj Chopra where he spoke about how just before his first throw, his javelin was with Pakistani athlete Arshad Nadeem.
OpIndia has reached out to Chopra as well as Arshad Nadeem for their comments on what could be the possible reason for Arshad to be roaming around with Neeraj's javelin.
PM Modi also requested the players to send written suggestions and letters to him recommending how the infrastructure and training in the country can be bettered.
On August 10, reports surfaced in mainstream media that Pinky Karmakar, the torchbearer of the 2012 London Olympics, is now working as a daily wage worker at a tea garden in Dibrugarh, triggering criticism for the central govt.
So-called liberals clutch to the straws to 'prove' that 'Sanghi' Neeraj Chopra got no help from the Central government during his training for Olympics.
