Kanista Teena Maria Deva Shekhar: With several medal winners of the Asian U20 included in the 43-member national squad, India is hoping to improve on the two silver and one bronze medals won in the 2022 edition of the World Athletics U20 Championships in Cali, Colombia. The Indian squad on Wednesday morning left for Lima, Peru to participate in the 2024 edition of the World U20 Athletics.

The Indian athletics contingent left Delhi's International Airport on Wednesday hoping to capitalise on the boost the athletes got from bagging seven gold, 11 silver and 11 bronze medals in the Asian U20 Athletics Championships held in Dubai, UAE, in April this year.

According to chief junior athletics coach, N. Ramesh, the contingent is bullish following hectic preparations in the lead-up to the World U20 Athletics 2024.
