Olympic podium is the only single point vision. She is very young and we will continue to guide her journey and are thankful of your generous offer. At the moment SAI and Govt of India through AFI are providing her everything needed for her success. Will ask when needed. Thank u

Neeraj CHOPRA brought us our FIRST field event (Javelin) Gold At World Championships in 2016. Now Hima Das has brought us our first Gold in a track event - 400m women. Silver to Romania and Bronze to USA. What a brilliantly run race!! Very Proud of them both

Well done Neeraj...keep going...Congratulations to Neeraj and coach Uwe Hohn (former World Record Holder in javelin throw). Thank you SAI and Govt of India for agreeing to send Neeraj to Finland along with coach for training on recommendation of Athletics Federation of India
AFI is in deep shock. We just received Tejinder Toor our Shot Putt ASIAN Gold Medalist at the airport and at the same time received the sad news of the passing on of Tejinder’s beloved father. May is soul rest in eternal peace. Our heartfelt condolences to him and his family.
Had the pleasure to provide my experience and expertise and conduct a review of HP Centre and work site of the first Indoor Athletics Stadium in India along with Mr Vineel Krishna Secretary Sports - Govt of Odisha.

So proud of Shaili's feat! A jump of 6.48m to create a new NR, and up her U-20 world ranking to No. 1( U-18 youth category).
This is an extremely emotional moment for all us, considering all the hard work and effort we have put in to come this far. Onwards and upwards!

It was rejected on the basis that they did not have the official footage of the video referee. Totally bogus reply by the jury. We will take the protest to the next level
Speaking with legends. Abhinav Bindra, Neeraj Chopra, Saurav Ganguly at Revsport sports conclave organised by Boria MAJMUDAR in Kolkotta. It Was one of India’s best ever sports conclave and I can say it with tremendous happiness that the turnout of the Champions was exemplary.

What justice are u talking about. He is selected by Athletics Fed and his entry is also sent to IOA and to OCA. Writing anything to Hon Sports Min and Hon PM has become a fashion. Yes he was not in the first list as he had not qualified, but his name will appear in the final list

Twitter cannot decide the fate our National Treasure. KPM you are correct. It has been decided after his last training session today that he needs a little more time before his first competition. Sorry to disappoint fans.
Over the years, the financial support to Indian elite athletes have increased exponentially and it's time the top stars stop complaining about the shortfall. My views on the recent controversy surrounding Dutee Chand

Totally false. Kashinath was NEVER Neeraj's personal coach. Kashinath was only an assistant coach amongst many other assistant coaches inthe Camp. There are many many assistant coaches in the camp.
He was a good coach and a great human being. May his soul rest in eternal peace. Our prayers with the departed soul. Our heartfelt condolences to his family.
I was pleased to be there at the RevSportz Trailblazers conclave and meet my fellow athletes and administrators.
