    Indian Olympic Association: With the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) setting up an ad-hoc committee to manage boxing in the country, Olympic bronze medallist pugilist Vijender Singh said he is ready to contest elections for the Boxing Federation of India (BFI) to help put things in order.

    Vijender, who won a bronze medal in the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008, had earlier in the day called for new and fair elections in the BFI and also advocated greater foreign exposure for Indian boxers to increase their chances of winning medals at the 2028 Los Angeles Games.

    Asked whether he is interested in contesting in the BFI elections, Vijender replied in the affirmative.
