Hima Das is touted around in indian media as Golden Girl, world champion, forst Indian to win 4 gold and so on.
But these are very low level competitions and she has done poor timings.
Our National Record is 22.82s and Dutee Chand regularly score 23.00s. Timings of Hima Das in winning these low level competitions by Hima Das are 23.97, 23.43, 23.25s. She wont even win Gold at National Games with such time.She would not even cross Heats in Asian/Commonwealth/Olympic with such timings in 200 meter.
You need less then 23 seconds timing for passing Heats and less then 22 second timing for any chance of medal at world level event.
You are partially correct... with her 200m timings, she will not cross even heats in world championships/Olympics... but she can reach final in asian level and even have chances for bronze... currently how many asians can run below 23 seconds.. maybe 3 ?
Dutee Chand usual average time is around 23:20 in 200 m.. she could able to manage 23.00s only once.. in Asian games.. I guess..
Hima Das is 4 years junior to Dutee .. after 4 years, Hima Das would be far better than now..
Also 200m is not new event for Hima.. National coach advised her to concentrate mainly on 400m... That is the reason she is not active so far in 200 m.... Most of the athletes who have done well in 400m are doing good in 200m as well and vice versa..
Apart from ranking & wild card, Olympic Qualification mark for 200 m is 22:80.. Prior to 2020 Olympics, it is not possible for either Dutee or Hima to reach 22:80 level
