Indian Olympian Bhawna Jat Handed 16-Month Ban By National Anti-Doping Agency
Indian race walker Bhawna Jat has been handed a 16-month ban by the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) on Friday for whereabouts failures. The 16-month ban will commence from the date of her initial suspension on August 10, 2023, and will end on December 10, 2024, according to Olympics.com. Although the Anti-Doping Disciplinary Panel (ADDP) made the decision to suspend Bhawna under Article 2.4 of the NADA Rules on July 10, 2024, it was only listed on their website on Thursday. NADA had provisionally suspended Bhawna in August last year, which prevented her from competing at the World Athletics Championships 2023 in Budapest, Hungary.
