Gaurav eked out a hard-fought 3-2 win over local favourite Danial Saparbay in his opening bout to confirm himself of at least a bronze medal.
But six-time Asian Championships medallist Shiva went down fighting 1-4 against another Kazakh Abduali Almat in the 63.5kg bout. Sanjay (80kg) also exited the competition after a 0-5 loss against current Asian Games champion Tuohetaerbieke Tanglatihan of China.
Later in the day, Manisha (60kg), Monika (81+kg) and Lalfakmawii Ralte (81+kg) will be in action. Ralte has been drawn in the 81+kg section due to fewer entries there.
