The Sports Ministry approved the inclusion of two Boccia athletes, Sachin Chamaria and Anjali Devi, in India's contingent for the Aichi-Nagoya Para Asian Games.
The late additions increase India's overall athlete count to 168 and total contingent size to 281 for the quadrennial event starting October 18.
The Indian team will compete across 11 sporting disciplines, though the overall squad size is smaller than the 303 athletes who participated in the 2023 Games in Hangzhou.
