Former boxer Manoj Kumar raises concerns over BFI selection process

The national selection camp resumed on Wednesday after the Boxing Federation of India (BFI) reverted to a trial-based selection process following a directive from the Sports Authority of India to make the assessment system more transparent and fair.
Reacting to the federation’s latest notification, Manoj questioned why former boxers and decorated athletes were not included in the monitoring or assessment process.
