It is an immature and biased statement issued by the national athletics coach Mr. Bahadur Singh. The people of India strongly condemn such an insulting statement blatantly against the reputation of our Country. It appears that Mr. Singh has a hidden agenda with Suresh Kalmadi. That is why he is issuing such a partial statement to clear the air in favour of Kalmadi. We have a Question to Mr. Bahadur Singh - how the presence of a tainted person like Kalmadi who was behind the bar in Tihar Jail for almost a year for misappropriation of Crores & Crores of money in CWG scam graft case be allowed to witness the London Olympics to "encourage" the athletes sacrificing the dignity of our Country?
May be this coach has not read papers. Kalamadi may have loved sports once. Now, he is an accused that is accused of wrongly billing India and pocketing the monies.
This coach can have his opinion. But that doesnt mean India needs to send people that are out on bail to represent India.
Kalmadi said ,India will win more that 100 medals in commonwealth games and India did.
Kalmadi said,India will win 70 medals in Asian games,India won 65.
Kalmadi is saying India will win 15 medals in London olympics,India will.
Kalmadi knows Indian sports thoroughly and he is a very capable administrator.
He has been made a scape_goat in the loot where major portion was looted by others who are hiding behind his name.
He is such a nice person that he has not put other thieves_in trouble and took all the punishment of staying in Tihar jail.
Yes,if he is proved guilty,he should be punished.But I think too much is made out against a hyper active person who can only do good for Indian sports.
At heart all sports man likes him as he is their voice.We cannot ignore his contribution to Indian sports.So,I think Kalmadi should be allowed to go to London as till now he is not found guily.If he is found to loot 5-10 crores,its ok,because he has done many great things for Indian sports.That money should be recovered from him and he should be allowed to be involved with Indian sports.

If he actually be a thief, the money what he deposited in swiss bank should be brought back to india. After three, four years of prison stay he will come out and use that money.
