Suomesta otti osaa 4-henkinen joukkue: Marjut Lausti, Mira Potkonen, Matti Koota ja Dmitri Tretjak. Mitaleja ei saavutettu mutta otteluvoittoihin ylsi Dmitri Tretjak kukistaen Tsekin Krolin, sitten häviö Slovenian Venkolle. Matti Koota hävisi hajaäänin tutulle tanskalaiselle Jensenille, Marjut Lausti hopeamitalisti Italian Davidelle ja Mira Potkonen pronssia saaneelle Azeri Alexejevnalle. Miesten tärkein kilpailutapahtuma oli EM-kisat Bulgarian Samkovoissa. Ennen EM-kisoja käytiin karsintaottelu Dmitri Tretjakin ja Ilari Kujalan välillä Helsingissä,Tretjak voitti ja sai edutuspaikan EM-kisoihin 3-miehiseen joukkueeseen.

The probe panel would ascertain truth behind the death. Food Security Ordinance notified The Union government has notified the National Food Security Ordinance, 2013, which entitles 67 per cent of the population to receive subsidised grains from the government every month. The ordinance places the responsibility of implementation and monitoring of the scheme under the Targeted Public Distribution System on the States. It gives them six months to put the systems in place to deliver the programme. Delhi is vying to be the first to launch the scheme. New Lt- governor for A&N Lieutenant-General (retd.) A.K.

  • Achievements in Boxing
    BOXING XIX COMMONWEALTH GAMES, NEW DELHI (OCTOBER 03-14, 2010) The Indian pugilists cashed greatly on the impetus provided by the bronze medal winning performance by Vijender Singh at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, by performing exceptionally in the international arena. Ever since the Beijing Olympics the performance of the Indian boxers has had an upward graph, which was clearly visible in the 2010 Commonwealth Games. India hosted the 2010 Commonwealth Games which were held in Delhi. India won 101 medals in total, including 38 Gold medals, enabling it to finish the Games at second position behind Australia. An unprecedented haul of three gold and four bronze medals in boxing at the Games, was a significant contribution to Indian overall medal tally. Suranjoy Singh (52kg), Manoj Kumar (64kg) and Paramjeet Samota (+91kg) were the gold- medallists for India, while star attraction Vijender Singh (75kg), Amandeep Singh (49kg), Jai Bhagwan (60kg) and Dilbag Singh (69kg) had to be content with bronze medals after losing in the semi finals. This was India’s best-ever medal haul at the Games, two better than the previous edition in Melbourne where the country fetched just one gold. XVI ASIAN GAMES AT GUANGZHOU, CHINA NOVEMBER 12-27, 2010 The power pack performance of Indian boxers at Asian games was better than any of their prior efforts. Indian boxers clinched two gold, three silver and two bronze medals at the Asiad. In the Women’s discipline which was making its debut at the Asian Games, Indian boxers secured two bronze medals as well. This was also the first time that Indian boxers were able to win greater than a single gold medal in Asian games.

The onset of the global pandemic caused by the COVID-19 outbreak has caused great distress across the world. From our perspective, it has meant that the Olympic Games scheduled to be held in Tokyo, Japan from July 24-August 9, 2020 have been postponed for the first time in history. While there is no doubt that the right decision was made, this postponement has led to a drastic shift in momentum for all our athletes who were in the ‘home stretch’ of their preparations. Having said that, this situation has also given us and our athletes a new purpose: that of being grateful, cherishing what we have and preparing even harder in the coming year to ensure we can move forward toward our goal of kickstarting an Olympic Movement in India! It fills me with immense pride to see the impact we have been able to create in Indian sport through the Inspire Institute of Sport (IIS) – our dedication to the nation built with the objective of churning out Champions for India.
