Narsingh is also a medal prospect, as Narsingh has won bronze medal in world championship. I have huge respect for Sushil, but this time he is unlucky. Sushil cannot blame WFI, he has to blame his luck. Let's cheer for Narsingh. If WFI makes any policy, it should be same for anyone...

I differ in opinion here, Narsingh is constantly doing well, the only option would have been if Sushil agreed to go for the qualifiers in 85kg category, but he didn't.
