ritu 1 Report post Posted July 31, 2012 As the Grand Olympic event was declared open, the officials concerning the same event in India got infuriated over a matter. What usually happens is, a particular nation sends a contingent to represent itself at the event and the participants are supposed to dress in a pre-decided style. Same was the case with the Indian team, the male participants had blue blazers on them with yellow turbans and their female counterparts were dressed in yellow sarees. They all had identity cards around their necks, but the there was a twist which didn’t turn to be pleasant for the Olympic Committee nor for the participants. A lady in a red hoody and turquoise pants was spotted walking with Indian wrestler Sushil Kumar, the flag bearer of the Indian contingent. This was taken as offensive by the Olympic authorities in India and they stated it to be a result of poor security, though there was no threatening activity on the woman’s part. However the woman was identified to be a volunteer who had come to participate in the opening ceremony.It was considered inappropiate for her to walk with the Indian players and officials and was frowned upon by everyone.
