Who Runs Women's Sport

Naa younger brother’s coaching centre fees jump every year, but the board of that sports federation? Same faces for ten years, no one asking why. In our stationery shop, if a pen is too expensive, people just buy the cheaper one next to it—competition fixes that. But here, the women athletes have no other shop to go to. So tell me, who pays when the decision-makers never have to count change from a steel register?

साहब, वो स्टील की रजिस्टर गिनने वाली बात सच है — हमारे यहाँ तो बरसात में फट्टा बोर्ड टेढ़ा हो जाता है, उसकी कीमत भी मेरी जेब से जाती है।

That is a good point, and I cannot fully argue against it—when the same faces sit year after year, the *paan* (betel) money changes hands but the athlete's *phajaba* (tiredness) is never counted. But tell me, in the Imphal market, if one shopkeeper cheats on the *ning* (weight), the whole lane knows by evening—there is no competition, only the *sajibu* of shared shame. The problem is not the lack of a next shop; it is that nobody built a *register* where the athletes themselves can write the price.
