Celebrated boxer Mary Kom and men’s hockey team skipper Manpreet Singh will be flag-bearers at the opening ceremony of Tokyo Olympics.
One of India’s biggest hopes, wrestler Bajrang Punia will be flag-bearer at the closing ceremony on August 8. The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) has communicated the decision in this regard to the Organising Committee of the Games. In a first, India is having two flag-bearers — one male and one female — at the upcoming Tokyo Games to ensure “gender parity”.
