A mystery woman gatecrashed India’s march past at the Olympic opening ceremony and the delegation are seeking an apology from the London organisers, an Indian newspaper reported on Sunday.

Acting chef de mission PKM Raja was quoted as saying by the Times of India newspaper that the incident had “embarrassed us in front of the world”.

Photographs show a woman in red and blue walking close to flag-bearing wrestler Sushil Kumar on Friday night, in complete contrast to female members of the contingent who were wearing yellow sarees and blue blazers.

This British Olympics is turning out to be a joke.

She's Madhura Nagendra, a post-graduate student living in London and formerly from Bangalore.

That is a serious mess up of security. Thank goodness she was not a Kashmiri Separatist.

I guess you love large child-bearing hips. The woman boasted on facebook about her Olympics tickets, had her few minutes of fame, deleted her facebook account, her parents are sticking up for her, and she has now gone into hiding. Will they jail her? -- Come in, Sunil and Mr. T, please update us.
