Table Tennis Asian Olympic Qualification Tournament begins from 13th April 2016.

The International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF), the global body supervising the sport of Shooting, has accepted a request made by the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI), the governing body for the sport in India, for the exchange of one quota place earned for the upcoming Rio Olympic games in August. In a communication received by the NRAI, the ISSF agreed to India’s request for the quota earned in the Men’s Rifle 3 Positions event to be exchanged in favour of the Men’s Trap. The participation of Kynan Chenai in the Men’s Trap at the Rio Olympics now stands confirmed.

Congrats Jitu Rai for gaining No. 1 spot in the rankings of 50 m pistol shooting

Congrats Shiva Thapa and sad for Mary Kom

Thanks for the information. I thought that it is generally for null or negligible participation in a particular sport and not across all sports. And that too there is no hard and fast rule and depends entirely upon the discretion of the committee.

Badminton Indian Open 2016 Saina Nehwal and Rituparna Das won their matches in Women's Singles Pranav Chopra / Akshay Dewalkar and Manu Atri / Sumit Reddy won their matches in Men's Doubles Manu Atri/Ashwini Ponappa and Pranav Chopra/Siki Reddy won their matches in Mixed Doubles Mohita Sahdev/Sanjana Santosh won their matches in Women's Doubles B. Sai Praneeth and Ajay Jayaram lost their matches in Men's Singles

Is there any Tripartite invitation or similar offer for deserving gymnasts who fail to qualify?
