Digital Desk: The official mascot for this year's
Asian Athletics Championships, which get underway in Bangkok on Wednesday, is "Lord Hanuman," one of India's most cherished deities.
Reportedly, the occasion marked the creation of the continental governing body 50 years ago. The Asian Athletics Association stated on their website that Hanuman "displays extraordinary abilities in (Lord) Rama's service, including speed, strength, courage, and wisdom... Hanuman's greatest ability is, in fact, his incredibly staunch loyalty and devotion."
The 25th Asian Athletics Championships insignia depicts the athletes competing in the events, their talents, their ability to work together as a team, and their display of athletic ability, commitment, and sportsmanship.
Furthermore, India would strive to put up a memorable performance at the Championships under the direction of shot putter Tajinderpal Singh Toor and long jumper Murali Sreeshankar.
The Indian squad departed from
Delhi and Bengaluru on Saturday night for the five-day Asian Athletics Championships.
