Nisha joins training

BANGALORE: In a move to boost India's chances for gaining more medals, the swimming Federation of India (SFI) has asked Nisha Millet to join the Indian swimming squad now training at SAI (South) Centre in Kengeri for the Asian age group championship scheduled to be held in Bangkok next month.

Olympian Nisha, who hasn't been training for quite some time now, has already reported at the camp. She would compete in the open section at the Bangkok meet, in the 100m, 200m and 400m freestyle and 200m backstroke events.

The camp, which faced an early hiccup with the problems with the filteration system in the SAI pool, is now in full swing after authorities rectified it — Special Correspondent
