Sneha, who is a national camper in Thiruvananthapuram, has been dropped from the Indian team taking part in the Asian Championships in South Korea. A source in the Athletics Federation of India (AFI) has confirmed that Sneha has indeed been withdrawn from the team. However, it is yet to be confirmed where her sample was taken.

Sneha was part of the mixed relay team at the World Relays in China early this month and was selected for the Asian Championships for both the women’s and mixed relay teams.

Interestingly, according to the AFI selection policy for the relay team, only those quartermilers who are part of the Thiruvananthapuram camp will get selected to represent India.

Meanwhile, Shivpal, who may get an eight-year suspension for a second offence, was training in Patiala with India’s javelin coach Sergey Makarov.
