Improving sports infrastructure is part of BJP's manifesto

The rules changed this time. Already nations like  qualified two boats in their respective continental tournaments. Additionally,  can't participate and  can qualify only 1 boat

With 2024 General Elections around the corner in India, the ruling party BJP put bidding for 2036 Olympics as one of its points in its manifesto

Improving sports infrastructure is part of BJP's manifesto

Actually if it would have been any other time, India would have jumped at the opportunity of being the host; but India now is focusing on hosting the 2030 Youth Olympics and 2036 Summer Olympics. and the proposed host city is Ahmedabad where a new sports complex is being built. Even still, if the proposed host city would have been Delhi, host city of 2010 Commonwealth Games, where there is existing sports infrastructure, then most probably India would have opted for hosting the CW Games

Manika Batra put a Instagram story about team qualification 

Now for the women's team rankings  including Singles rankings. This is merely an indicator as  obviously rankings changes for 40 x 3 players would be a mammoth exercise. 4 teams would qualify via rankings. So this is my rankings scenario

in Archery, 

As per this link, team rankings generally are published by 5th of the month
https://www.ittf.com/rankings-updates/

So the Rnd 16 teams have been decided. Assuming that group winners are also the quarter-finalists, those who qualify are  .
This leaves four teams who can qualify by rankings, heres my rankings scenario
1 -  2114 pts
2 -  2024 pts
3 -  1994 pts
4 -  1980 pts
_____________________
5 -  1902 pts
6 -  1858 pts
7 -  1778 pts
8 -  1762 pts
9 -  1392 pts
10 -  1230 pts

yup I missed, so  ends up 2358 pts and pushes  out
