The names of Ajay Saroj (1500m) and Sumit Kumar (4x400m hand-off) – both of whom were not named in the group reported on March 10 – were there in their place.

An Athletics Federation of India official, in any case, said that the issue will be dealt with.

The ask for made by AFI and IOA for a late incorporation of high jumper Siddharth Yadav, Viajayakumari (4x400m hand-off) and long jumper M Sreeshankar has been acknowledged by the coordinators.
