The Boxing Federation of India's three-member disciplinary committee will seek Vikas Krishan's explanation for forfeiting his Asian Championships semi-final bout, on May 20.
The three-member committee, headed by veteran BFI official Asit Banerjee, and comprising vice-president Rajesh Bhandari and Nirwan Mukherjee (Uttarakhand Boxing Association chief), will conduct the hearing in the capital.
Vikas had given a walkover in his middleweight (75kg) semi-final bout against Korea's Lee Dongyun, the reasons for which are still not officially known.
"Vikas will be given a patient hearing. He will be provided a fair chance to present his case and explain the reasons. I have personally assured him of a fair hearing," said BFI Secretary General Jay Kowli.
