Some local Goa Channel may telecast it. It is not a big thing as some people are thinking it to be
<br><div><br></div><div>Yeah, not that big and so I asked. It is Portuguese CWG. Right?</div>
<br><div><br></div><div>yeah it still a new event will take some time to get recognition on world stage </div><div>but last time it was covered by Portugal television because the highlights were shown in Goa through a Portuguese Channel </div>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India_at_the_2013_World_Championships_in_Athletics<br><br>Pathetic show by India at World Championship in athletics going on in Moscow. No chance of medal but these athletes do not even reach their personal best or Asian level timings. They sent 15 participants. Athletics officials hold big clout in Indian Olympic Association and they always manage to send large number of athletes, coach, officials. <br>
<br><br><br>wrong sentence from the article- The Indian Olympic Association was suspended by the IOC last December
for not adhering to its own constitution during elections and for
electing corruption-tainted officials.<br><br>WRONG. the Indian Olympic Association was suspended for Sports Bill and govt. interference in selection of officials. It was media and govt. who went after officials and that irked IOC. you cannot debar officials saying they are tainted. <br>

India will qualify if either India wins the tournament or even if Malaysia wins. But I have a feeling that Pakistan will be a very tough team this time. Korea already qualified and malaysia will qualify also no matter which team wins Asia Cup. <br>It is India versus Pakistan. <br>
