Now, the ASI is training its athletes to win medals at the Asian Games. “We will judge our performance on the basis of the Asian Games rather that the Commonwealth games. Our target for the Asian Games is not less than 4 medals.”
In CYG, the ASI had no representations for athletics. Colonel Ahlawat said that the athletes, training at the ASI, were too young. “We started our junior athletes programme only in 2006 and hence the athletes were in the age group 14-16 years. We did not have athletes in the age group of 18 and below. However, they are working hard to win medals at the Asian Games.”
