Rijiju Intervenes in Weightlifter's Exclusion from Commonwealth Team

Imagine a talented weightlifter named Sambo Lapung from Arunachal Pradesh.

He won gold medals three times in national competitions.

But, he was surprisingly left out of the team going to the Commonwealth Games.

This made a local organization very unhappy.

They wrote a letter to a government minister, asking him to help.

They think it's unfair because the rules for picking the team didn't seem clear.

The organization feels that the weightlifting federation isn't being fair.

They also believe it sends a bad message to young people in the region.

They want the minister to fix this and make sure everyone is treated the same way.
