BFI chief accuses Kalita of stopping Lovlina from competing in Nationals; pledges full support for boxers

“Assam is discouraging players from participating in the women's Nationals. Lovlina has recorded a video of support. But officers have received a call that she has been asked by Hemanta Kalita not to participate. Because she owes a lot to Assam boxing, she is reconsidering her participation,” Singh said in an “emergency press conference” here.
