New Delhi: The Swimming Federation of India (SFI) has added Janhvi Choudhary to the Asian Games squad as a replacement for the swimmer, who was withdrawn after she was provisionally suspended by the National Anti-Doping agency. Janhvi will compete in the relay event. Her participation in the continental event will, however, depend on the Sport Ministry’s clearance, a federation source told PTI. The 19-year-old Bengal swimmer specialises in freestyle events. In August, an Asian Games-bound swimmer, who was a minor, was handed provisional suspension by NADA after she tested positive for 19-norandrosterone. The Asian Games are scheduled to begin on 23 September and will go on till 8 October in Hangzhou, China.
