So, when asked when she would return to this event, the Assam athlete, who became a 400m sensation after the 2018 World Juniors’ gold in Tampere, said: “There is no hurry. It all depends on how the body responds and what the management (coaches, Athletics Federation of India, physios) suggests.” While the buzz is that she might return to 400m at the Asian Games next year, the 22-year-old indicated on Thursday that the wait could get longer.
