We have secured two quota places, one each in men's and women's categories. Now we will be holding trials to select the best two lifters who will represent India at the Rio Games," IWLF vice-president Sahdev Yadav said.
Yadav said if Mirabai Chanu can improve her performance by four kilograms in the next three months, she would stand a good chance of a podium finish at the Rio Games.

"Mirabai came up with an impressive show at Tashkent and we will ensure that she works harder to improve by another four kgs. If she manages to achieve that, she has a good chance of winning a bronze medal at Olympics," Yadav said. The bronze medallist at 2012 London Olympics in women's 48kg category had a total lift 192kg.
 
After this is there any chance for anyone else in Women's category....

Tokyo - 2020

Go India Go

History will be created on 5th May 2016, when BWF will release its final ranking for Rio qualification. Through that list, India is set to add 7 more on its list of players qualify for Rio. It will take our tally of qualified players upto 86, 3 more than last Olympics (which is our all time best). With 4 in tennis (a pair each in man & women double) & 3 in golf (2 in men & 1 in women) is almost sure, and 1-2 from Judo & swimming, it is taking our delegates tally to 95-97. We can hope for 2-3  more quotas in wrestling, 3-4 in boxing & 3-5 in Athletics. We hope for 2 in Archery (men team event) & 1 in table tennis (men team event). So we may get it around 109-112 players qualified for Rio Olympics. Which will be a big psychological barrier, that our sports person will cross. I hope three digit delegates will bring medals in two digit.
