Despite spending 8 billion dollars, the Paris Olympics have been filled with controversies.
The first controversy involves wrestler Vinesh Phogat, who was disqualified for being just 100 grams overweight. Despite appealing for the silver medal, she was not awarded it.
The second controversy surrounded Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, whose gender was questioned amid allegations that she was a biological male. Earlier, the International Boxing Association had banned her for failing to clear a gender eligibility test.
In another case, swimmer Luana Alonso had to leave the Olympics because the committee believed her beauty could be a distraction for other athletes. While she didn’t win a medal, Chinese swimmers, who won 12 medals, were also caught in a controversy.
Just before the Olympics, reports surfaced that Chinese swimmers were allegedly using performance-enhancing substances. In addition to that, there were further issues in Paris related to swimming. Due to high pollution levels in the Seine River, many swimmers fell ill after competing there.
These controversies have overshadowed the games, despite the huge investment made in organizing the event. The focus on such issues has left many questioning the fairness and management of this global event.
