File Pic[/caption] Internet Desk: His dreams of representing India for Rio Olympics all but over, Sushil Kumar said there was no reason for him to not support Narsingh Yadav for the mega-event. The Olympic medallist, having finally accepted the Delhi High Court's verdict on May 6 that dismissed his plea of conducting a trial bout against Narsingh, added a cheeky remark. "Narsingh toh Pakistan ka nahi hai, support kyun nahi karenge usse?" (Narsingh is not from Pakistan. Why wouldn't I support him?), Sushil said In a chat with ESPN India. "Training is currently my sole focus. That's what's keeping me busy." Having won a bronze medal in the World Championship in Las Vegas last September, Narsingh secured an Olympic quota in the 74-kg category. Sushil, on the hand, who has won two Olympic medals in the 66-kg category moved to 74-kg when the former category was scrapped. He then missed the World Championship due to a shoulder injury, which further aggravated his chance of securing a quota.
