Spartan Posted February 22, 2019 Report Posted February 22, 2019 The International Olympic Committee or IOC has decided to "suspend all discussions" with India regarding hosting of global sporting events after Pakistani shooters were not issued visas for the World Cup in New Delhi. The Olympic committee also revoked the Olympic qualification status for the men's 25m rapid fire event from the New Delhi World Cup due to denial of visas to the Pakistani shooters in the wake of last week's Pulwama terror attack in which over 40 paramilitary soldiers were killed The IOC said it will not allow India to organize any Olympic-related events in the future unless written assurances are obtained from the government. The two Pakistani shooters' participation in the tournament had become doubtful after the terrorist attack had been reported. The IOC's decision comes hours after International Shooting Sports Federation (ISSF) President Vladimir Lisin announced that all the allotted 16 Olympic quotas for the 2020 Games would be scrapped. However, the top sporting body limited the withholding of quotas to only two while retaining 14. "The IOC restricted the withdrawal of recognition as an Olympic qualification event to the 25m rapid fire pistol competition in which the two Pakistani athletes were supposed to participate. This happened in the interest of the other 500 athletes from 61 countries participating in the other events who are already in India for their competition," the IOC said in a statement after its executive board meeting in Lausanne, Switzerland on Thursday. "Since becoming aware of the issue and in spite of intense last-minute joint efforts by the IOC, the ISSF and the Indian National Olympic Committee (NOC), and discussions with the Indian government authorities, no solution has been found to allow the Pakistani delegation to enter India in time to compete." the statement said. The International Olympic Committee came down heavily on India for going against the Olympic charter. "This situation goes against the fundamental principles of the Olympic charter, in particular the principles of non-discrimination, as well as the IOC's and the Olympic movement's position, reiterated on many occasions over the past few years, that equal treatment must be guaranteed for all participating athletes and sporting delegations at international sports events, without any form of discrimination or political interference from the host country. "As a result, the IOC executive board also decided to suspend all discussions with the Indian NOC and government regarding the potential applications for hosting future sports and Olympic-related events in India, until clear written guarantees are obtained from the Indian government to ensure the entry of all participants in such events in full compliance with the rules of the Olympic charter -- and to recommend that the international federations (IFs) neither award nor hold sports events in India until the above-mentioned guarantees are obtained," the IOC said.

We won’t win anything anyway in these “sports”. Most of the other countries cheat by doping or use advanced medication to enchance their performances. We are a country of a billion and a half. If you are good here, you are probably one of the best examples of human spirit and capacity. You don’t need outside competition to validate your abilities. You don’t need to participate in a competition full of fraudsters. Quote

It's just horrible that this happened. We can't blame all Pakistanis (particularly those two people) for what happened in Pulwama. Just like we can't blame all Americans for Donald Trump. I mean, problem Mana daggara petkoni valliddarini discriminate cheste ela? Asalu diniki daniki tala toka emanna sambandam unda? It's like a white guy shooting an Indian person thinking that he is Muslim. I mean common, janalaki buddilepote parledu, this is the Olympic committee. Quote
