Apart from Boxing Federation of India (BFI) agreeing to be part of the WB, the president and his officials had rounds of discussions with federations from different confederations. As of now, the target for the WB is to garner enough support to get the provisional recognition from the International Olympic Committee (IOC) by the end of this year and for that they are seeking a membership of at least 50 countries. Along with that, they are also trying to host competitions. And India could be one such destination.

It's a must for shuttlers to constantly update themselves based on who's in front of them. \"The competition is high so it is not going to be easy (Olympics). This is my third Olympics but every time the game keeps changing and some of them are new players while some of them will be taking part for the second time.
