Doping conspiracy is an insult . . .
The recent controversy on Monika who was being framed as positive in a dope test conducted on June 6 under the Sports Authority of India is a conspiracy that was cooked up to humiliate the sporting spirit of shining sportspersons of Manipur.
The conspiracy clearly shows the deep rooted corruption in Indian sports. Despite being an exhibition of the Sports Authority of India's (SAI) sinister design to publicly insult the concern and sentiments of the people of Manipur by framing Monika on false ground of doping result, the drama of doping test has also produced a new terrain of racial discrimination in Indian sport. The fraud is now witness to a blunder of losing India's lone weightlifter to compete in the Beijing Olympic.
People in Manipur work so hard to support all the sportspersons in their formative phases and this toiling should never get cheated like the way it is being done to Monika by refusing her to go to Beijing for the games on the false charges of using banned drugs.
The doping conspiracy has displayed sports officials' callousness to how big a sporting event the Olympic is to a sportsperson like Monika and her supporters and how sharp they will be hurt if they are falsely implicated. One can easily see the development of the drama of fraud in Monika's case.
As per the general norm for dope testing for international players, the dope test report should be made available 48-72 hours prior to her departure. Contrary to the norm, Sports Authority of India sent the dope test report to Indian Weightlifting Federation on August 6, the same day Monika had to leave for Beijing.
Surprisingly, even before the arrival of the test report to IWF, SAI had already made the media alert about the result which is only an act of a well prepared leakage of information. She was subsequently subjected to fresh dope test on August 8 at the instruction of IWF only to reveal all negative.
IWF urged Indian Olympic Association to allow Monika for the Beijing Olympic immediately. Another review panel recommended her for the Olympic by considering three latest negative reports after the test of June 6. She was given a clearance of the charges of positive.
She was given a hope that she now could go to Beijing which was later rejected by the Indian Olympic Association on the ground that the entry to Beijing Olympic had already been closed.
The dramatic developments from being tested 'positive' to being reincarnated 'negative', and finally directing to 'fly' to Beijing and later being rejected to the 'entry' is all that happened to an international weightlifter from Manipur.
Such a gross crime to Monika with all such vulgar intentions that is committed by the Sports Authority of India is what the Indian Army did to Manorama in 2004.
We stand for the Manipuri sportspersons.
We demand immediate suspension of R.K Naidu, Director SAI.
We demand CBI investigation of the doping conspiracy.
