Manipuri Wushu Players, Coach Left Out Of Asiad Squad
Moscow Wushu Star Championship: Manipuri Wushu players and coach have been excluded from the India squad for the 19th Asian Games starting September 23 at Hangzhou, China, officials said here on Saturday, adding that the players and the coach were excluded on “whimsical grounds”.
A Manipur government official said that Hanjabam Karnajit Sharma and Leimapokpam Sanatombi Chanu from Manipur, both reigning national champions and undergoing training at Patiala, did not find their names in the India squad despite being selected for the trials.
Coach Mayanglambam Sachidananda has also been excluded from the national squad for the third consecutive time despite being the most senior and experienced coach, who has produced several national and international champions, the official said.
