Dutee Chand's real race is against the Olympics' double standards SECTIONS Last Updated: Jul 24, 2021, 09:48 AM IST Share Synopsis Allegations of unfairness are being made against many women athletes accused of having unfair advantages because of their natural condition. A particular focus is New Zealand's weightlifter Laurel Hubbard, who is competing after completing her gender transition. Such athletes are said to violate the Olympics vision of fairness, with sports an arena of pure ability. In Fiercely Female, Sundeep Mishra's new book on Dutee Chand, hunger is a recurring theme. It is inescapable when you are the fourth of seven children in a family with a monthly income of less than Rs3000. Getting a daily meal of dal-rice was a challenge, leave alone the high-quality diet that athletes from developed countries have enjoyed all their lives.
