Olympian Srihari Nataraj Ne KIUG 2025 Me Pool Temperature Issue Uthaya

Olympian swimmer Srihari Nataraj ne Khelo India University Games 2025 ke swimming events ke baad bola ki pool ka water temperature itna zyada cold tha ki water me time spend karna almost unbearable ho gaya.

Srihari ne apni post me likha:

“Water literally bahut cold tha, aur race se pehle bhi pani me rehna mushkil ho raha tha.”

Unhone bola ki 50m races thodi manageable thi, lekin jo longer events the unme swimmers ko kaafi struggle hua. – TheBridge

Kya issue tha exactly?

  • Swimmers ne watches aur devices se pool ka temperature check kiya.
  • International swimming rules ke hisaab se water temperature 25–28°C hona chahiye.
  • But KIUG ke main pool ka temperature 17–18°C ke around tha — jo competition ke liye dangerously low maana jata hai.
  • 21°C ke neeche water me muscles jaldi tight ho jate hai, breathing pattern toot jata hai aur speed bhi down hoti hai.

Problem ka reason kya tha?

  • Warm-up pool me heater tha,
  • Lekin main race pool me heater nahi tha.
  • Is wajah se race ke time water bohot thanda ho gaya aur sab swimmers ko problem hui.
  • Organisers ne time pe koi fix nahi kiya, aur swimmers ko ye issue last moment me pata chala.

Swimmers ki reaction

Srihari ne bola ki overall event ka arrangement theek tha, par water temperature wala issue ignore nahi kiya ja sakta.
Unka kehna tha ki:

  • Main pool me heater hona bahut zaroori tha
  • Schedule bhi aur balanced ho sakta tha

KIUG initiative acha hai, next time water temperature pe zyada attention dena hoga
