World aquatic sports governing body FINA given important information about Olympic games. As said here that the artistic swimming test event for the Olympic Games has been postponed to July. Let us share here that the event, which originally doubled as an Olympic qualifying competition, will just serve as an “operational test” and be run by the Olympic organizers.

For your information let us share here that FINA said in a statement on Tuesday night that the artistic swimming Olympic qualification event, which had been scheduled for early March, will be moved outside Japan and held in June. But the location has not been decided.

However, here it is to be noted that the Tokyo 2020 organizing committee said the worsening Covid-19 situation in Japan is not the reason that has forced FINA to cancel the event. Japan has been suffering a fourth wave of Covid-19 infections since late March, with the western prefecture of Osaka on Tuesday requesting that the central government declare a fresh state of emergency for the region. Similarly, informed sources said the Tokyo metropolitan government will request the central government to declare a new state of emergency in the capital this week as it also struggles to deal with a surge in Covid-19 cases.
