This is a pretty cool article. Although it isn't related sports infrastructure within India, it does show the government is investing in our Olympics performance

badmintion , weightlifting, women's boxing, women's wrestling, maybe archery and shooting, hockey male, else everything is a bonus

Outside medal chances in track and field for Avinash Sable, men's 4*400 relay, Annu Rani (women's javelin) and Kishore Jena (if he can get his act together - that is). Murali Sreeshankar missed out due to an injury else he would be a medal contender.

Misleading chart - list does not count tt team members separately even though they would be taking part in singles too. Same goes for recurve archery - there would be singles, team and mixed events. The count I gave was for individual athletes.
