## Controversy

Despite the Kosovo Boxing Federation being a full member of the AIBA, Indian authorities refused to grant visas to competitors from Kosovo, thus preventing them from participating in the event. Athletes from Kosovo were previously denied entry to India in 2017 for the Youth Women's World Championships.
