Never before has Neeraj Chopra questioned officiating in any meet at any level. The Olympic and World Champion has preferred to let his performance do the talking so when he says “gadbad to hai” it speaks volumes about the level of officiating in athletics at the Asian Games.
“Our team should definitely look into why so many things have gone wrong. I haven’t seen this in big competitions because, after a disruption to the first throw, it could have thrown me off balance. We saw how Jyothi had to fight. Some athletes can be mentally strong and fight it but it can affect others,” Chopra said after leading India’s 1-2 in javelin throw that saw Kishore Kumar Jena get a personal best twice.
