🚨India move to 5th place in the medal table of Asian games

India is the biggest sporting nation in Asia; there are no athletes in Asia even close to India's level

​You might see China, Japan, and Korea ahead of India on the medal tally, but the main point is that they collect medals and stay on top by playing nonsense types of games that no one in the world knows about and that they practically play by themselves

​On the other hand, India wins medals in games recognized globally, such as cricket, hockey, sprinting, and weightlifting

Female athletes of India done something incredible in this tournament despite the terrible faculties provided by the host country japan to them
