Shame old story..

The controversies have just started. aage aage dekho hota hai kya! Doping,blame game,politics,corruption etc have always plagued Indian sport. Just a look at the sorry state of hockey will show us what a dark age this is for sports in India. either you have to be extremely talented or have strong political contacts to keep your career going.
Monika Devi is guilty or innocent, this will be clear in near future. But her career surely devastated, thanks to regionalism (if what she states is correct).
What we need is a Person like Kiran Bedi to look after Indian sports. When the whips will fall on the guilty people then only we will have true sportspersons emerging and surely some podium finishes.
Till then we can just look at the mockery of Indian sports in amusement.
