Milkha, you are saying this because YOU have not faced the injustice that Sarita has faced. Instead of supporting her, you are giving this idiotic statement.

Boxing India has brought disgrace to India... there was no support for Sarita against the cheating..!!
Accepting injustice is akin to accepting defeat. In all due respect to Mr Mhilkha Singh, we should support Sarita Devi in this regard, for she took a strong stand. For that matter, it was wrong for the Korean athelete to take the medal from Sarita. Why didn't that person show the grace and return the medal to the organisers? No one seems to criticize that
I strongly disagree with Milkha Singh's comment. Raising voice against a bunch of cheats who were masquerading as boxing referees needed courage abd guts. Sachin tendulkar has suppirted her; India's sports minister has supported her. It is sad Milkha Singh has sought to criticise her.
Dint faulty umpiring not bring a bad name to South Korea? Milkha is getting a bit too harsh on Sarita. If she had quietly accepted the consolation prize, it would have been disgraceful for accepting wrong umpiring.
Forget what Milkhaji says, we still respect Sarita Devi for her actions and Milkhaji for his achievements.

Milkha thinks he is the one and only great in Indian sports! Once he ridiculed P T Usha also, though she reached much more closer than him for an Olympic medal

You don't become a international referee.. they are all experienced persons who went with Indian group.
In every international games always there will be decisions in favor of the hosting country...even it has happen in India...Saritha should have taken this politely...she made a big drama in the international stage...

Sarita should have reported through correct channel in protest and Indian authorities should have supported her...
