Sports Authority of India (SAI) on Friday formed a three-member committee to investigate leading gymnast Aruna Budda Reddy's complaint. The two members of the committee headed by Radhica Sreeman are deputy director (operations) Kailash Meena and SAI coach Kamlesh Tiwana. The fitness test on Aruna was conducted prior to the gymnast’s participation at the FIG Apparatus World Cup in Baku in March in the presence of a six-member committee. Aruna has levelled allegations against SAI coach Rohit Jaiswal, who was a member of that committee. According to Aruna, the clinical assessment test conducted on her injured knee by a doctor was filmed by “one of the trainees of Jaiswal” at Jaiswal's behest on a mobile phone without obtaining her consent. The assessment, which took place on March 24, lasted for around 10 minutes.

Gymnastics body head says he didn't order videography; gymnast threatens legal actionNEW DELHI: Aruna Budda Reddy, the first Indian gymnast to clinch an individual medal at the Gymnastics World Cup, alleged on Thursday that she was videographed without her consent by one of the Sports Authority of India's (SAI) coaches during the process of her physical fitness test at the IGI stadium here in the month of March this year. Aruna, who had won a bronze in the women's vault at the Melbourne Worlds in 2018, has warned of initiating legal action against the coach after the Gymnastics Federation of India (GFI) informed her that it hadn't authorised or ordered any person to video record her fitness evaluation test. The incident dates back to March 24, 2022 when Aruna - accompanied by her coach Manoj Rana - had come to Delhi for a test ahead of the Baku World Cup, as directed by the GFI. The federation had formed a six-member committee for the purpose, which included women's artistic gymnastics' (WAG) technical committee chairman and Rio Olympian Dipa Karmakar's coach, Bisheshwar Nandi, SAI coaches Rohit Jaiswal and Ashok Mishra, doctor Manoj Patil and a male and female physio who were attached to the gymnastics national camp at the IGI. According to Aruna, her entire clinical or manual assessment test conducted on her injured knee by Patil was filmed by "one of the trainees of Jaiswal" on the coach's personal mobile phone without obtaining her consent. The assessment lasted for around 10 minutes.
