Glasgow: Indian contingent suffered a jolt today with two athletes pulling out of the Commonwealth Games, starting here tomorrow. Sachin Roby, who was to take part in men's 4x400m relay, has been suffering from Jaundice for the last few days and would no longer be able to participate in the event, while para-athlete Sachin Choudhary has returned home due to deteriorating condition of his ailing father.

Chef de Mission Raj Singh told the Indian media contingent that Roby will be sent home if he is permitted so by the team doctors. "Roby was admitted to a local hospital here and he was diagnosed with jaundice. He was admitted to the hospital for four days," Raj Singh said.
