Rio 2016: Milkha miffed with poor show
Milkha, who had missed a bronze medal by a whisker in the 1960 Rome Olympics, said that the standard of performance of the Indian sportspersons has gone down as compared to earlier editions of the Games.
“True, we have not being doing well (in Rio). In earlier Olympics, we have done better, winning medals, even gold, silver and bronze. The IOA will have to take responsibility for this,” Milkha said.
“The standard of India’s performance (in Rio) has gone down as compared to earlier Olympics,” said the octogenarian former quarter-miler.
After three days of action at the Rio Olympics, Indians have still not won a medal with star shooter Abhinav Bindra missing out on a podium finish by a whisker in men’s 10m air rifle event on Monday night.
