    The decision was taken as a preventive measure by BFI

  • Sports Authority of India (SAI) advised the Boxing Federation of India (BFI) to take the preventive measure.

    The Indian team travelled to Italy and Jordan, two countries with significant number of coronavirus cases.

    Earlier, a travel advisory issued by the government stated that incoming travellers could be quarantined for a minimum of 14 days upon their arrival in India.

    There were concerns over the status of foreign coaches, owing to VISA suspension by the Indian government till April 15.

    However, a BFI source asserted that they will get an exemption from the government.
