Ok.....

Its supriyo not supriya...

However i feel, when every nation can sent a swimmer of each gender than we should send one. Send the best of them.

 

 

 

 

Let us look at the qualification process in swimming as I understand it 

1.Any swimmer, up to two per event per country, who hit the FINA “A” standard can go to the Olympics, in the first priority. India has no swimmer with an A standard ...... will any hit the standard by july 5th ..... seems unlikely at this point of time but anything is possible 

2. The next priority will be athletes in relays,  where the first 12 from the 2015 World Championships will go, and the remaining 4 spots in each event will go to the next-best 4 teams in the qualification period in approved qualifying events.

No chance here as we are not eligible 

 

3. Up next will be the Universality places, where countries who have no swimmers with an “A” time or a selected “B” time may enter up to 1 man and 1 woman for Rio, presuming that man and woman competed at the 2015 World Championships. Each can swim in just 1 individual event. If a country has a male swimmer invited, they can invite 1 female swimmer under the Universality rules, and vice-versa.

i presume India will select 1 man and one women for  Rio .... India had sent 8 swimmers to the world championships ........aaron , sandeep , virdhawal , saurabh and sajan in the pool events and mandar in the 10 km swim , two women nikita ( 10 km ) and shivani ....... I am sure that India will select the best man and women from this group .... The swimmers who did best sajan prakash , virdhawal and sandeep ...so I think India will select one of them ........ and from the women shivani most probably ..............
4. Up to the cap of 900 swimmers (the same as London), FINA will begin inviting swimmers with “B” times. By July 5th, 2016, FINA will inform “B” standard swimmers of their invites (up to 1 “B” swimmer per country). The change, and this is significant, is that FINA may continue to invite swimmers with “B” standards above the 900 quota to ensure that every country represented at the 2015 World Championships will have an (eligible) swimmer at the Olympics.

 

I think we will get an opportunity to qualify one more swimmer , but that will depend on the timing in B .....in this supriyo mandal may be amongst the highest  ranked close to 110 in 200m butterfly ...........but that depends on FINA

 

I feel hence in swimming we may have 2 men and 1 women from the above group
