2024 Olympic Games: Two-time Olympic medallist PV Sindhu and table tennis star Achanta Sharath Kamal will be India's flag bearers for the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics, IOA President PT Usha confirmed on Monday, July 8. The President also confirmed that Olympic medallist Gagan Narang will replace Mary Kom as India's Chef-de-Mission for the Games.

Narang's promotion to the deputy CDM post comes after Mar Kom resigned. PT Usha confirmed the developments in a press release. “I was looking for an Olympic medalist to lead our contingent and my young colleague is a suitable replacement for Mary Kom,” PT Usha said in a press release.

She also confirmed Sindhu, the only Indian woman to have won two Olympic medals, as the flag bearer alongside Sharath. “I am also delighted to announce that India's only woman to have won two Olympic medals, PV Sindhu, will be the female flag bearer alongside table tennis player A Sharath Kamal at the opening ceremony,” Usha said.

Six-time world champion and Olympic medalist Mary Kom had retired from boxing a few months ago in April, citing personal reasons. She said that she had no choice but to retire due to compelling personal reasons. The boxer was appointed CDM by the IOA in March this year.

The Indian Olympic body had named Kamal as India’s flag bearer for the Games in March but postponed the decision to select the female athlete alongside him. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) had in 2020 changed its protocol to allow one female athlete alongside a male athlete from each participating NOC to be the flag bearer during the opening ceremony of the Summer Games.

During the last Olympics in Tokyo, India's flag bearers were Mary Kom and former hockey captain Manpreet Singh. “I am confident that our athletes are well prepared to deliver the best results for India at the Paris 2024 Olympics,” Usha added in her statement. Significantly, more than 100 athletes from India have qualified for the Paris Games, which begin on July 26.
