Recently, the National Anti-Doping Agency suspended India's top female 400-meter runner, Dipanshi, for anabolic steroids after she tested positive at the National Inter-State Athletics Championship recently held in Panchkula, Haryana. Dipanshi took silver in the women's 400-meter final in 52.01 seconds.
The 21-year-old athlete finished just behind Kiran Pahal, who won gold with a timing of 50.92 seconds and set a new meet record. The elation of standing on the podium went up in smoke the next moment when the out-of-competition dope sample, collected from Lilli after the heat race or July 27 semifinal on June 27, tested positive.
This is the first unfortunate doping incident at these championships, which concluded on the 27th and 30th as the final qualification event for the Paris Olympics.
There is much concern about the suspension of Deepanshi because she doesn't get to train at the national camp has people speculating maximum buzz about her sources of doping substances and the nature of the training environment she is under.
