Commonwealth Games (CWG) gold medallist Sanjita Chanu said Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh has assured her quick action in the doping matter. The gold medallist further claimed that there could have been a "glaring error in the laboratory sample identification." Calling the test report 'dubious', the Manipur Chief Minister wrote a letter to the Union Sports Minister, Rajyavardhan Rathore, seeking his intervention in the matter. "Records placed before me show that IWF suspension communication mentions sample no. Biren said inferring from the communication of the IWF, the sample identification was "conflicting and the report seems to be dubious".
