New Delhi: Indian Olympic Association (IOA) President PT Usha, who drew criticism for Vinesh Phogat’s weigh-in fiasco, on Sunday made it clear that it is the responsibility of the athlete to manage their weight and the attack on its medical team, especially Chief Medical Officer Dr Dinshaw Pardiwala is “unacceptable and worthy of condemnation,” PTI reported.
The 29-year-old Vinesh was left heartbroken after she was disqualified ahead of her gold-medal bout in freestyle 50kg for being 100 overweight in the morning weigh-in, crushing her Olympic dreams and prompting her to announce her retirement.
