They sent 80 officials but

Dipa Karmakar had asked a Sports Authority of India (SAI) official to allow her longtime physio Sajad Ahmad to travel with her to Rio 2016 Olympics but her requested was deemed wasteful' it has been learnt. But now that she has qualified for the Final, Ahmad has been rushed to the South American city to keep her in optimum shape in order to help India land its first medal in gymnastics at the Olympics.

Olympians should make their bank/paypal accounts public like political parties so that people can help them by donating money directly.

Boss- Do you hear about Shanti Devi ?
She was part of Bihar's team that won the National Kabaddi Championships in 1982 and 1983. These days, she sells vegetables at the Sonari Aerodrome Market in Jamshedpur to feed her 4 children.

It may seem to be a small sum but it would mean a lot to many.. and in totality the amount is huge! Indeed a very good gesture by Salman :)

I hope ARR,Sachin and Salman come forward together to help all the athletes in one way or the other👍🏼

BCCI gives other sports 50 crs per year but I dunno where that all money goes ?? Even after that there is no improvement everything is same like before.

Star Channel is doing good job by making big league tournaments n which is giving recognition to other sports and its players.

They are under gag orders. Ive heard from someone that they cant even open kickstarter or go fund me pages because the Govt frowns at them.

There is a saying in Telugu " amma petta pettadu.. Adukku tina tinaneeyadu" which translates to neither mom feeds you.. Nor let's you beg. It fits the situation to the T.

Nice gesture.I hope he keeps his words and this is not a drunk tweet. It will mean a lot to the athletes , someone recognising their efforts. This is a wake up call( repeated one) to the government to improve the sports infrastructure.

Why Salman needs to tweet every charity?
