New Delhi: Boxing India yesterday refuted allegations that junior women pugilists were subjected to pregnancy tests ahead of the upcoming World Championships, stating that only the eligible senior girls went through the tests as required by the International Boxing Association (AIBA).

Amid reports that girls were subjected to these tests in violation of rules, BI, which is yet to get recognition from the Sports Ministry and IOA, yesterday stated that the AIBA invitation for the Championships, later this month, clearly asks for a “non pregnancy form issued by a medical doctor” from all participating boxers.
