@mohans , I found the reason for BAI not allowing Shankar in the Team events.
First of all, Shankar's father is in financial crunch. As Shsnkar was selected for WJC , he was called to participate in the training camp in Hyderabad. But since he has already registered for Infosys international challenge tournament in Banglore and also the withdrawing deadline has crossed, in order to avoid paying fine, he went from Hyderabad to Bangalore to participate in the tournament. Since he was not called from BAI before leaving to spain, he gave walkover to Meiraba whom he has to meet in the next round and reached Airport, where he was told by BAI that he was removed from the list for indiscipline (what!?). He was forced to write an apology letter and later hewas admitted to play for India. He was not allowed to play in Team events as punishment to him. Even he was not sure whether they will allow him to play in the individual event. See, he is the only one in the entire squad is getting a medal.
What do you think about this incident?
