Tokyo: Monday was a day of disappointment for India as no Indian athlete was able to win medals. At present, the country has one silver medal won by the weightlifter Mirabai Chanu, and her medal may be upgraded to gold as the gold medal winner Hou Zhihui of China is being tested by the anti-doping agencies. If she fails in the test then Mirabai will be the gold medallist.
