BTF has taken away the host of qualifiers due to the outbreak of Coronavirus in Wuhan (China) and it has been extended one month further. Some other countries including India have expressed their desire to host before the BTF. Due to this, the competition regarding hosting has become tough. BTF's new host has been announced in a few days. However, the time between the first and second qualifiers to be held in Paris in May is also short. In such a situation, the Boxing Association of India (BFI) and the team management believe that the challenges have become stronger. However, women boxers will now be given more opportunity to prepare.
