New Delhi: Indian boxers may not compete under the national flag and coaches also won't be allowed at the ringside in the Incehon Asian Games Sep 19-Oct 4 if Boxing India doesn't host fresh elections scheduled for Sep 11.
SAI Director General Jiji Thomson told reporters here Wednesday that boxers may not be allowed to take part in the Asian Games under the Indian flag by the International Boxing Federation (AIBA). The world body, which had terminated the membership of the Indian Amatuer Boxing Federation (IABF), has given the mandate to Boxing India to form a new elected body.
