Asked if she was aware of any such incident in sports, Sindhu replied,"I don't know about seniors and coaches. As far as I am concerned, I have been on sports circuit for years and it has been good and fine with me."

Sindhu's badminton colleague Jwala Gutta on Tuesday without giving any names, alleged mental harassment by a coach.

Reputations, especially in Bollywood, took a beating when people such as Tanushree Dutta and Vinta Nanda named Nana Patekar and Alok Nath for alleged misconduct years ago.

The journalist-turned-politician MJ Akbar, who is a junior foreign minister in the NDA government, was also accused of misconduct by many journalists.
