01:00When we first went to the Olympics, they used to do too many tests.
01:03They used to do the test for doping and hormone levels.
01:06They used to do the test for gender.
01:08How do they attend the Olympics?
01:12First it is the competition, then the test, then the Olympics…
01:16The IOC has not given any complaint that it is a male…
01:20So how can this girl question me?
01:22Today this girl lost, that's why she's questioning me.
01:25If she had won, she wouldn't have questioned me.
01:28If I had asked the question, then it would have been a game of the mind that who has to be accused and who has to lose.
01:35It is easy to accuse someone for raising a question on their gender.
01:38But it takes a lot of time to prove yourself.
01:40And before it can be proved, people will start taunting him.
01:46From social media to press media, the media is talking about him.
01:50So his reputation will be ruined.
01:52When I was selected for the Commonwealth Games, I was removed from the team.
01:56There was a lot of talk in the media that Dutty has been gender-tested.
02:00That he is not a girl, he is a boy.
02:02That's why he can't play in the women's category.
02:04A lot of news went viral like this.
02:06And at that time, the biggest problem was to live a normal life in society.
02:10But wherever he went, a lot of media used to send him.
02:12A lot of people used to come forward to question him.
02:16There was a lot of trouble at that time.
02:17Look, it is easy to accuse someone.
02:19But it is very difficult to prove it.
02:21Like I said, if you accuse me that Dutty's gender is male,
02:25it took me two years to prove it.
02:27I spent a lot of money.
02:29I had to be humiliated a lot.
02:31After a lot of hard work, I proved to the world that I am a female.
02:34I fought that whatever hormone level I have, it has been produced properly naturally in my body.
02:39I have not used any foreign drugs or medicines.
02:41And this hormone has never given me an advantage in playing.
02:45So after all the hard work I have done, I have achieved success today.
02:49So I challenged him.
