New Delhi: The sports ministry on Thursday said it has started a “thorough review” of India’s dismal outing at the Rio Olympics and is seeking feedback from athletes who had competed in Brazil.
India finished with just two medals, P.V. Sindhu’s silver in badminton and Sakhsi Malik’s bronze in wrestling, at the two-week sporting gala. “Sports minister Vijay Goel has decided to conduct within the ministry a thorough review of India’s performance in Rio Olympics, 2016. The process has already begun,” the ministry said. “The minister has written individual letters to each of the athletes who participated in the Rio Olympics, 2016, seeking their feedback and suggestions. He has said that they should feel free to give him their suggestions or feedback anytime either personally or through mail.”
