Fly_like_a_don 866 Posted August 30, 2021 Author #22 Share Posted August 30, 2021 India's love with javelin continues. A gold silver and bronze for the day.

He should not have been allowed to compete but the fact that your athletes and coaches protested when Ukraine couldn't get a gold is a shame.
