I hope they bag gold next time

Only Manu is meeting

Her father has been associated with Congress not directly

But her family has been loyal Congress supporters also with Haryana elections just around the corner most probably Congress is coming in power in that state.

So she is meeting any Minister from Congress.

I would have liked her to stay away from Politics, except PM BJP ya kisi aur ke members se bhi nahi milna chahiye.

But she knows abhi woh kuch bhi maangi toh both the parties will fulfill her demand.

Yes before finale only.. He returned to win gold this time..

He has said he understands what she goes through as he met with same fate and returned heartbroken after disqualification..

He told her not to loose her heart and fightback..

In this scenario how will CAS rule in vinesh favour?

Disqualification is one thing but to deny rightful silver is just not done. Fine disqualify her from final cos of the rule but why cannot she get her rightful silver? when she defeated her opponents fair & square to reach the finals.

Neeraj's was understandable as he won gold and that too in athletics. Although I agree with you. Barring tv ads, Neeraj did so many mag covers, also the collab with Tommy Hilfiger would never happen if he was not a cute looking guy.

Also look at his skin.. It is radiating.. Looking so fresh..

Neeraj was very much like Ravi or Vijay. His gold took it for him. He wasn't able to speak English properly, was from a semi Urban background.

I remember in the first few days someone asked him questions like if he has kissed his girlfriend and whom will he like to kiss in this room.

He was taken aback and just got numb.

Since he was a Gold medalist and just 22 he slowly groomed himself. Even now if you had heard that interview he is a very simple village boy with Haryanvi accent. Good thing about him is that he didn't change himself to be accepted. He remained he was and made others reach out to him on his terms..

Rest of the things I completely agree

.the rule was clear you are disqualified if you don't match weight criteria on any day. So that silver wasn't actually very rightful

Still let's see what the verdict is

Bcoz that is rule

Which is clearly mentioned in the rule book and everyone knew about it.

That is true

But Swapnil and Sarabjot are not bad looking.

People can be remembered if u win a Gold or make a exceptional record or do Politics.

Joh inmein se kuch nahi karta, is forgotten.

But I hope iss baar wale saare players if they place next time, hope they do super wll and win medals.
