Indian Judoka Tulika Maan Provisionally Suspended, Withdrawn from 2026 Commonwealth Games
Indian judoka Tulika Maan, silver medallist at the 2022 Commonwealth Games, has been provisionally suspended by the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) for three whereabouts failures within 12 months, leading to her withdrawal from the 2026 Glasgow Commonwealth Games. This violation, under World Anti-Doping Agency rules, may result in a two-year ban. Another judoka, Arun Kumar, was also withdrawn after testing positive for an anabolic steroid. The Indian judo team is scheduled to depart for Glasgow on July 27, with competitions starting July 31.
